Strong’s Definitions [?](Strong’s Definitions Legend)
βουνός bounós, boo-nos'; probably of foreign origin; a hillock:—hill.
STRONGS G1015:
βουνός, -οῦ, ὁ, a Cyrenaic word according to Herodotus 4, 199, which Eustathius [831, 33] on Iliad 11, 710 says was used by Philemon [Νοθ. 1], a comic poet (of the 3rd century B.C.). It was rejected by the Atticists, but from Polybius on [who (5, 22, 1f.) uses it interchangeably with λόφος] it was occasionally received by the later Greek writings (Strabo, Pausanias, Plutarch, others); in the Sept. very often for גִבְעָה; (perhaps from ΒΑΩ to ascend [cf. Hesychius βουνοί· βωμοί, and βωμιδες in Herodotus 2, 125 (Schmidt, chapter 99, 11)]); a hill, eminence, mound: Luke 3:5 (Isaiah 40:4); Luke 23:30 (Hosea 10:8). Cf. Sturz, De dial. Maced. etc., p. 153f; Lob. ad Phryn., p. 355f; [Donaldson, New Crat. § 469].
