Where has "two-swamp area" been proposed for the etymology of Debelton? —VAN-ST (talk) 12:30, 30 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Jan de Boer stated that Debelton means "two-swamp area" on page 132 in "Apollonia Pontica and its emporia, ports of trade?" in Pont-Euxin et Commerce: La Genèse de la "Route de la Soie". Mugsalot (talk) 18:30, 31 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
Thanks; for reference, that is [1] citing T. Todorov, On the etymology of Deultum, in Thracia 5, Sofia, 1980, 200–202. —VAN-ST (talk) 21:48, 3 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
