The Pentagrammatons in The World-Map of Herodotus
The Pentagrammatons in The World-Map of Herodotus
Abstract
In his Histories (5th BCE) the author Herodotus documents a world-map with numerous rivers,
cities, seas and mountains, for which we often may identify the precise location and modern name.
At the northern side we may identify the rivers ALPIS, PYRET(us), LÚKOS. Additionally we may
observe 3 of the 4 paradisaical rivers (Eu)FIRAT, (ava)MEZIN (Tigris) and PASIN (or KARUN). A
wadi represents the 4th paradisaical river PISON. These 4 rivers are found near Babylon and (the
Sumerian city of ERIDU.
In the map the labeled cities are SINOP(e), PYREN(e), CYREN(e), TOMIS (Constanta), ThYBES or
ThIVA(S). An island is Corsica ( CIRNÉ or CYRNOs). Mountains are the PILLAR(s) of Atlas and
the Taurus mountains1 (Ταύρου). TAURI (Tauri, Tawri, Tanwri) was the name for the first
population of the Crimean peninsula.
1 Heinrich Kiepert writes in Lehrbuch der alten Geographie that the name was borrowed into Ancient Greek from the
Semitic (Old Aramaic) root ( טוראṭūrā), meaning "mountain".[1][2]
The World-Map of Herodotus
In his Histories (5th BCE) the author Herodotus documents a world-map with numerous rivers,
cities, seas and mountains, for which we often may identify the precise location and a modern
name2.
The rivers
At the northern side we may identify the rivers ALPIS, PYRET(us), LÚKOS. In Greek language the
name Lukos is translated as “wolf”, which in Greek may be applied for numerous rivers, kings and
other names for the symbolism of the wolves' characters. I listed an overview of the “Wolf”-words
in the appendix.
§ 4.48 The Ister, which is the greatest of all the rivers which we know, flows always
with equal volume in summer and winter alike. It is the first towards the West of all the
Scythian rivers, and it has become the greatest of all rivers because other rivers flow
into it. And these are they which make it great: — five in number are those which flow
through the Scythian land, namely that which the Scythians call Porata and the Hellenes
PYRETos, and besides this, Tiarantos and Araros and Naparis and Ordessos.
§ 4.49 From the region which is above the Ombricans, the river Carpis and another
river, the ALPIS, flow also towards the North Wind and run into it; for the Ister flows in
fact through the whole of Europe, beginning in the land of the Keltoi, who after the
Kynesians dwell furthest towards the sun-setting of all the peoples of Europe; and thus
flowing through all Europe it falls into the sea by the side of Scythia.
Lycus (/ˈlaɪkəs/; Ancient Greek: Λύκος Lúkos, "wolf") is the name of multiple people in Greek
mythology3. The modern name seems to be Kalmius, a river to Palus Maeotis (the Asowic Sea) in
Sarmatia (Ukraine)
§ 4.123 This desert region is occupied by no men, and it lies above the land of the
Budinoi, extending for a seven days' journey; and above this desert dwell the
Thyssagetai, and four large rivers flow from them through the land of the Maiotians 4
and run into that which is called the Maiotian lake, their names being as follows, —
Lycos (LÚCOS), Oaros, Tanais5, Syrgis.

4 The Maeotian Swamp or Maeotian Marshes (Ancient Greek:ἡ Μαιῶτις λίμνη, hē Maiōtis límnē, literally
Maeotian Lake; Latin: Palus Maeotis) was a name applied in antiquity variously to the swamps at the mouth of the
Tanais River in Scythia (the modern Don in southern Russia) and to the entire Sea of Azov which it forms there.

The king Minos and his Minotaur
In Greek mythology, MINOS (Greek: Μίνως) was a King of Crete, son of Zeus and Europa. Every 9
years, he made King Aegeus pick 7 young boys and 7 young girls[1] to be sent to Daedalus's
creation, the labyrinth, to be eaten by the Minotaur. After his death, MINOS became a judge of the
dead in the underworld. The Minotaur was born by Pasiphaë6– Queen of Crete, married with
MINOS, king of Crete. She conceived the Minotaur after mating with the Cretan Bull while hidden
within a hollow cow that the Athenian inventor Daedalus built for her, after Poseidon cursed her to
fall in love with the bull, due to her husband, Minos, failing to sacrifice the bull to Poseidon as he
had promised. Therefore the Minotaur was to be related to Minos and the Cretan royalty.
The bull was commonly the symbol and depiction of ancient Near Eastern storm gods,
hence Taurus the bull, and hence the name of the mountains. The mountains are a place
of many ancient storm-god temples.[6] Torrential thunderstorms in these mountains
were deemed by the ancient Syrians to be the work of the storm-god Adad to make the
Tigris (ava MEZIN) and Euphrates (Eu-FIRAT), rivers rise and flood and thereby
fertilise their land.[7] 7
The Quinotaur
The 5 places of articulation, which nay be found in the all human bodies, are also the concept,
which was used as the foundation of the Frankish royalty in the formula of the 5-horned Quinotaur8.
From the Quinotaur a long list of royals chained the kings as pentagrams from CLOVIS I (the first
king of the Franks (c. 466–511), and BASIN(a)9 (c. 438 – 477), LOUIS the PIOUS I10 to LOUIS
XIX (1775 – 1844). By the rape of the Quinotaur the French royals were allowed to extend their
pedigree to the Cretan king Minos (MINOS).
The pentagram of Minos (MINOS) suggests that the pentagrams had been known before the Greek
alphabet had been introduced to replace the Linear-B alphabet.
The suggested rape and subsequent family relation of this monster attributed to Frankish
mythology correspond to both the Indo-European etymology of Neptune (according to
Jaan Puhvel, from Proto-Indo-European *népōts, "grandson" or "nephew", compare also
the Indo-Aryan Apam Napat, "grandson/nephew of the water")[3] and to bull-related
fertility myths in Greek mythology, where for example the princess Europa was
abducted by the god Zeus, in the form of a white bull, that swam her to Crete; or to the
very myth of the Minotaur, which was the product of Pasiphaë's, a Cretan Queen's,
intercourse with a white bull, initially allotted to King Minos (MINOS), Pasiphaë's
husband, as a sacrifice for Poseidon11.

The 4 rivers of the Paradise
Composing a recent essay A new Etymology for the Pentagrams (PITAR and MATIR) I identified
three possible pentagrams (PISON, KARUN and FIRAT) in the names for the Rivers of Paradise
(sorted according to the list in the Book Genesis):
(1) the Pison and (2) Gihon, (3) the Hiddekel (Tigris), and (4) the Phrath (Euphrates)
Of course I knew there was a chance that all four rivers may have been composed as genuine
pentagrams. Only the Tigris needed to be traced back to an original pentagram for its name, which
was to be found in the Kurdish name Ava MEZIN "the Great Water".
The pentagrams clearly confirm Juris Zarins' description including Dora Jane Hamblin's map of the
rivers. Of course Juris Zarins' thesis also supports the thesis of the pentagrams.12
One of the best-fit names (instead of KARUN) would be PASIN as an mutation PASIN-TIGRIS of
the name Pasitigris (or Pasin-Tigris), which would result in a name-giving as follows:
Location River Pentagram 1 2 3 4 5
northwest Euphrates FIRAT F I R A T
southwest Pis(h)on PISON P I S O N
Sinope
Over a period of approximately 2,500 years, SINOP(e) has at various times been settled by
Colchians, Greeks (in the late 7th, late 5th, and 4th–3rd centuries BC), by Romans in the mid-1st
century BC, and by Turkic people beginning in the 12th century14.
The Greek colony of Sinope (Greek: Σινώπη, romanized: SINṒPĒ) was founded by Ionians from
the city of Miletus.[5] Sinope issued its own coinage, founded colonies, and gave its name to a red
earth pigment called sinopia, which was mined in Cappadocia for use throughout the ancient world.
[6] Some scholars have dated the earliest Greek colonization of Sinope to the 7th c. BC, while
others have proposed an earlier date in the 8th c.
During the Middle Ages sinopia in Latin and Italian came to mean simply a red ochre. It entered the
English language as the word sinoper, meaning a red earth colour.[1]
Pyrene
Pyrene (PYRENe) is a Celtic city near the sources of the Danube mentioned by Herodotus: see
Heuneburg, which is considered to be one of the most important early Celtic centres in Central
Europe, particularly during the Iron Age Hallstatt culture period.
The settlement has been called "oldest city north of the alps",[2][3][4] and has been identified with
the Celtic city of Pyrene mentioned by Herodotus.[5][6]
The river Ister begins from the Keltoi and the city of Pyrene (PYRENe) and so runs that
it divides Europe in the midst (now the Keltoi are outside the Pillars of Heracles and
border upon the Kynesians, who dwell furthest towards the sunset of all those who have
their dwelling in Europe); and the Ister ends, having its course through the whole of
Europe, by flowing into the Euxine Sea at the place 15 where the Milesians have their
settlement of Istria16.
Cyrene
Cyrene (CYRENe) was the most important of the five Greek cities in the region, known as the
pentapolis. It gave eastern Libya the classical name Cyrenaica, which it has retained to modern
times. The city was named after a spring, CYRA, which the Greeks consecrated to Apollo. The
archaeological remains cover several hectares and include several monumental temples, stoas,
theatres, bathhouses, churches, and palatial residences.
The city was founded by Greek colonists, probably from Thera (modern Santorini) in the late
seventh century BC and was initially ruled by a dynasty of monarchs called the Battiads, who grew
rich and powerful as a result of successive waves of immigration and the export of horses and
silphium, a medicinal plant.
13 Heinrich Kiepert writes in Lehrbuch der alten Geographie that the name was borrowed into Ancient Greek from the
Semitic (Old Aramaic) root ( טוראṭūrā), meaning "mountain".[1][2]

Thebes (Thiva in Greece)
Thebes (Greek: Θήβα, ThÍVA [ˈθiva]; Ancient Greek: Θῆβαι, Thêbai [1]) is a city in Boeotia,
Central Greece, and is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, and the third
oldest in Europe.
"Thebes of the Seven Gates" was a major force in Greek history prior to its destruction by
Alexander the Great in 335 BC, and was the most dominant city-state at the time of the Macedonian
conquest of Greece.
Archaeological excavations in and around Thebes have revealed cist graves dated to Mycenaean
times containing weapons, ivory, and tablets written in Linear B. Its attested name forms and
relevant terms on tablets found locally or elsewhere include te-qa-i,[n 1] understood to be read as
*Tʰēgʷaii s (Ancient Greek: Θήβαις, ThĒBAIS, i.e. "at Thebes", Thebes in the dative-locative case),
te-qa-de,[n 2] for *Tʰēgʷasde (Θήβασδε, ThĒBASDE, i.e. "to Thebes"),[1][4] and te-qa-ja,[n 3] for
*Tʰēgʷaja (Θηβαία, Thēbaia, i.e. "Theban woman").[1]
The Greeks attributed the foundation of Thebes to Cadmus, a Phoenician king from Tyre (now in
Lebanon) and the brother of Queen Europa. Cadmus was famous for teaching the Phoenician
alphabet and building the Acropolis, which was named the Cadmeia in his honor and was an
intellectual, spiritual, and cultural center. Cadmus promoted Echion as the first king of ThĒBAIS.

Even in modern times the “wolf”-title is found in:
• Lykourgos Logothetis (1772–1850), leader of Samos in the Greek War of Independence
• Lycurgus Johnson (1818–1876), American cotton planter and politician
• Lycurgus J. Rusk (1851–1928), American politician
• Lycurgus Conner (1909–1963), American politician
• George Lycurgus (1858–1960), Greek–American businessman and Hawaiian royalist.
In the overview Lycurgus (mythology) we may find numerous names for mythological characters
named Lycurgus19:
• Lycurgus, son of Aleus, and king of Tegea in Arcadia[1]
• Lycurgus, a king of Nemea, and son of Pheres.[2]
• Lycurgus, king of Thrace and opponent of Dionysus.[3]
• Lycurgus, son of Pronax,[4] son of King Talaus of Argos, and thus, brother to Amphithea,
wife of Adrastus. He was one of those who were raised from the dead by Asclepius.[5]
• Lycurgus, the Thespian son of Heracles and Toxicrate,[6] daughter of King Thespius of
Thespiae.[7] Lycurgus and his 49 half-brothers were born of Thespius' daughters who were
impregnated by Heracles in one night,[8] for a week[9] or in the course of 50 days[10] while
hunting for the Cithaeronian lion.[11] Later on, the hero sent a message to Thespius to keep
seven of these sons and send three of them in Thebes while the remaining forty, joined by
Iolaus, were dispatched to the island of Sardinia to found a colony.[12]
• Lycurgus, a suitor of Princess Hippodamia of Pisa, Elis. Like other suitors, he was killed by
the bride's father, King Oenomaus.[13]
• Lycurgus, another Thracian king who was the son of Boreas. He was plotted against by his
brother Butes but discovering his conspiracy sent him into exile.[14]
• Lycurgus, alternative for Lycomedes in Homer.
Additionally I found undated mythical titles:
• Lycurgus of Arcadia, king
• Lycurgus (of Nemea), son of Pheres
• Lycurgus of Thrace, king, opponent of Dionysus
• Lycomedes or Lycurgus, in Homer
• Lycurgus, son of Pronax
• Lycurgus, son of Heracles by Toxicrate, daughter of Thespius
• Lycurgus, a suitor of Hippodamia of Pisa
Probably we may identify the “wolf” as the characteristic symbol for the ideal Greek character.
In fact the isolated title “wolf” is found for natural environments such as rivers and valleys. In
contrast the active persons may be titled “wolf-worker” Lycurgus or simplified abbreviated to a
singular word “Lykos”.

Semitic (Old Aramaic) root ( טוראṭūrā), meaning "mountain".[1][2]

Lycus (mythology)
The number of these names is 23:
1. LÚKOS, one of the Telchines[1] who fought under Dionysus in his Indian campaign.[2] He
is otherwise said to have erected a temple to Apollo Lycius on the banks of Xanthus river.[3]
2. LÚKOS, son of Prometheus and Celaeno, brother of Chimaerus. The brothers are said to
have had tombs in the Troad; they are otherwise unknown.[4]
3. LÚKOS of Athens, a wolf-shaped herο, whose shrine stood by the jurycourt, and the first
jurors were named after him.[5]
4. LÚKOS, an Egyptian prince as one of the sons of King Aegyptus. He suffered the same fate
as his other brothers, save Lynceus of Argos, when they were slain on their wedding night
by their wives who obeyed the command of their father King Danaus of Libya. Lycus was
the son of Aegyptus by Argyphia, a woman of royal blood and thus full brother of Lynceus,
Proteus, Enceladus, Busiris and Daiphron.[6] In some accounts, he could be a son of
Aegyptus either by Eurryroe, daughter of the river-god Nilus,[7] or Isaie, daughter of King
Agenor of Tyre.[8] Lycus married the Danaid Agave, daughter of Danaus and Europe.[6]
5. LÚKOS, son of Poseidon and Celaeno.[9]
6. LÚKOS, the "loudvoiced" satyr herald of Dionysus during the Indian War.[10] In secret
union, Hermes fathered him, Pherespondus and Pronomus, by Iphthime, daughter of Dorus.
[11] Eiraphiotes (i.e. Dionysus) entrusted to these three satyr brothers the dignity of 'the staff
of their wisdom-fostering father, the herald of heaven'.[12]
7. LÚKOS, son of Arrhetus and Laobie, who, together with his father and brothers, fought
under Deriades against Dionysus.[13]
8. LÚKOS, son of Pandion II and brother of King Aegeus of Athens.[14]
9. LÚKOS, son of Hyrieus and Clonia, and brother of Nycteus. He became the guardian of
Labdacus and Laius. Nycteus, unable to retrieve his daughter Antiope from Epopeus of
Sicyon, sent his brother Lycus to take her. He invaded Sicyon, killed Epopeus and gave
Antiope as a slave to his own wife, Dirce.[15]
10. LÚKOS, a descendant of the above Lycus, said to have usurped the power over Thebes.[16]
11. LÚKOS, son of Dascylus of Mysia or Mariandyne. He was hospitable towards the
Argonauts[17] and Heracles, who conquered the land of the Bebryces (Heraclea Pontica).
[18] He is apparently identical with the Lycus given as a son of Titias, brother of Priolaus
and eponym of a city.[19]
