CE´RBIA
CE´RBIA (
Κερβεία,
Κερμία, Const. Porph.
de Them. 1.39;
Κιρβοία,
Κιρβοῖα, Hierocl.), a town of Cyprus, which D'Anville places near the promontory of Crommyon. Wesseling (ap. Hierocl. s. v.
Κιρβοῖα) supposes it to be the same place as the Cremaseia of the poet Nonnus (
Dionys. 13.455). (Engel.
Kypros, vol. i. pp. 77, 158.)
