ΤΥΜΦΗ (Βουνό) ΙΩΑΝΝΙΝΑ
Tymphe (Tumphe), a mountain on the confines of Macedonia, Epeirus,
and Thessaly, a part of the range of Pindus, which gave its name to the district
Tymphaea (Tumphaia), and to the people, the Tymphaei Tumphaioi, Steph. B. s. v.).
As it is stated that the river Arachthus rose in Mt. Tymphe, and that Aeginium
was a town of the Tymphaei (Strab. vii. pp. 325, 327), Mt. Tymphe may be identified
with the summits near Metzovo, and the Tymphaei may be regarded as the inhabitants
of the whole of the upper valley of the Peneius from Metzovo or Kalabaka. The
name is written in some editions of Strabo, Stymphe and Stymphaei, and the form
Stymphaea also occurs in Arrian (i. 7); but the orthography without the s is perhaps
to be preferred. The question whether Stymphalis or Stymphalia is the same district
as Tymphaea has been discussed elsewhere. Pliny in one passage calls the Tymphaei
an Aetolian people (iv. 2. s. 3), and in another a Macedonian (iv. 10. s. 17),
while Stephanus B. describes the mountain as Thesprotian, and Strabo (l. c.) the
people as an Epirotic race.
