in Ancient Geography, a city built by Peleus on his return from Greece. Cyme the Amazon gave it name, on expelling the inhabitants, according to Mela. Latin authors, as Nepos, Livy, Mela, Pliny, Tacitus, retain the appellation Cyme, after the Greek manner. It stood in Aëolia, between Myrina and Phocaea (Ptolemy); and long after, in Peutinger's map, is set down nine miles distant from Myrina.—From this place was the Sibylla Cumæa, called Erythrea, from Erythre, "a neighbouring place." It was the country of Ephorus. Hechod was a Cuman originally (Stephanus); his father coming to settle at Acra in Bœotia.
