Ephyra
Ἐφύρη
Ephyra (Ἐφύρη), the name of several ancient. cities in Greece. Meineke (ad Steph. B. sub voce p. 275) connects the word with ἐφοράω, and others suppose it to be equivalent to Ἐχυρά (Curtius, Peloponnesos, vol. ii. p. 593); but the meaning of the word can only be a matter of conjecture.
