Notes:
Abridged from Harpokration (and Photius) s.v., commenting on this toponym's appearance in the accusative case (*kebrh=na, which the Suda mss turn into *ke/brina) in Demosthenes 23.154, and citing Ephorus FGrH 70 F10 for the extra information given.
The name of the city had several variants, of which the most authentic was Kebren (ending eta-nu). See Barrington Atlas map 56 grid D2.
