A proper name.
Pelôras: onoma kurion.
Attested only here. Perhaps an error for (or variant of) Peloros, executed for his attempt to conduct the Carthaginians through the Straits of Messina (
Strabo 1.1.17, 3.5.5), where he gave his name to the promontory of Pelorias (present-day Cape Faro); see under
pi 952.
