Is this word a latin or a greek word?
.The first tought is to say this word is a latin word , a
composed word from latin "trans" and "montem" but...
but I find that Ptolemeus use the same therm regarding the
population over the Peucini Mountains ( today Basarabia):
"koistobokoi kai transmontanoi"
For greek letters:
"kappa-omikron-iota-sigma-tau-omikron-beta-omega-chi-iota"=koi
stobokoi
"tau-rho-alpha-nu-sigma-mu-omikron-nu-tau-alpha-nu-omikron-iot
a"=transmontanoi.
