TEMNUS
TEMNUS (
Τῆμνον ὄρος), a mountain range of Mysia, extending from Mount Ida eastward into Phrygia, and dividing Mysia into two halves, a northern and a southern one.
It contained the sources of the Macestus, Mysius, Caicus, and Evenus. (
Strab. xiii. p.616;
Ptol. 5.2.13.) Hamilton (
Researches, ii. p. 125) is inclined to believe that Mons Temnus is the same as the
Ak Dagh, or, as it is commonly called in maps,
Morad Dagh. [
