MAURITANIA TINGITANA
Similarly to the previous post, the word
TINGITANA
also contains the Kartvelian
ET
-suffix, for the root here being
TINGI
, allegedly Berberian word:
TINGITANA <-- TINGETANA <-- TINGETI <-- '
land of tingi
'
The meaning of
TINGI
itself probably lies in the word ტინგიცა [tingitsa], meaning '
frivolous
'.
