OTE´NE
OTE´NE (
Ὠτηνή,
Ptol. 5.13.9, where the reading
Μωτηνή is incorrect), a canton of Armenia, separated from Atropatene by the river Araxes, (
Plin. Nat. 6.16 ) St. Martin (
Mém. sur l'Armenie. vol. i. p. 86) identifies it with the province known to the native geographers by the name of
Oudi, or what is now called
Kara-bâgh, to the N. of the Araxes.
