I don't know. Can anyone help? I'll try to locate Mole`'s original
publication where the "Magic Mountain" etymology was proposed ("Iranian
notes" in _Lingua Posnaniensis_ 1949, which I've never seen in spite of
being Poznan-based). I wonder if it was founded on some real Iranian
data or purely speculative.
