Κυπάρισσος, πόλις ἐν Παρνασσῷ κατὰ τοὺς Δελφούς, ἡ πρότερον Ἔραννος· Ὅμηρος “οἳ Κυπάρισσον ἔχον Πυθῶνά τε πετρήεσσαν”. ἀπὸ Κυπαρίσσου τοῦ Μινυοῦ. οἱ δὲ ἀπὸ τοῦ πλήθους τῶν αὐτόθι κυπαρίσσων, ἣν Κυπαρισσοῦντά τινες καὶ Ἀπολλωνιάδα φασί. τὸ ἐθνικὸν Κυπαρισσεύς.
Cyparissus: a city on Parnassus, in the region of Delphi, formerly called Erannus. Homer (Iliad 2.519): “they who held Cyparissus and rocky Pytho.” (So called) from Cyparissus the Minyan; others (derive it) from the abundance of cypresses there—some say it is also called Cyparissounta and Apolloniad. The ethnic adjective is Cyparisseus.
