>bismari, m. steel-yard (mælir ok p ndari ok bismari).

The correct word is 'pundari'.

A hint: When you need to check or double-check anything that
appears dubious in Zoega, you can always check the bigger
Cleasby/Vigfusson dictionary, of which Zoega is a "concise"
version.

Unfortunately I don't have a copy of Cleasby/Vigfusson yet but I hope to be
able to obtain one, sometime this year. It's a difficult one to get hold of
for both price and availability. A shame really; it seems that so many of
the best resources in English are long out of print and very hard to get
hold of.

best regards,
