Name of a place.
*pikenti/nh: o)/noma to/pou.
This adjective in the feminine nominative singular presupposes a noun such as
xw/ra, territory; and the entry is probably generated by
Polybius 2.21.7,
th\n *pikenti/nhn prosagoreuome/nhn xw/ran. See also, for the nominative itself,
Strabo 5.4.2 & 10, and
Stephanus of
Byzantium s.v. Pikentia.
For Picenum, near Umbria in central Italy, see also
pi 1593 and Barrington Atlas map 42 grids E2-F3. (The coastal ager Picentinus in S Italy, between
Salernum and
Paestum, is different.)
