#archaic geography

• North — An old, popular, or poetic designation for the cardinal point north; the direction indicated by the North Star, opposite to 'miazăzi' (south). Structurally, the term reflects the archaic spatial orientation of the Romanian people based on the sun's position at midnight from a Northern Hemisphere perspective.
• North — A continuous spelling variant for 'amiază-noapte' or 'miazănoapte'; indicating the cardinal point north or the septentrional direction. This structural term reflects the traditional spatial orientation of the Romanian people based on the sun's position at midnight from a Northern Hemisphere perspective.
• South — An old, popular, or regional designation for the cardinal point south; the direction indicated by the sun at the middle of the day (at noon), opposite to 'miazănoapte' (north). Structurally, the term reflects the traditional spatial orientation of the Romanian people based on the solar zenith.
• The south — The definite articulated form, archaic or regional, of the term 'amiazăzi', used in ancient manuscripts or popular dialects to designate the cardinal point south, the meridional direction, or the warm lands situated in the direct path of the midday sun.
• South — A faulty phonetic variant or obsolete regionalism for the term 'amiazăzi'; indicating the cardinal point south or the meridional direction. This structural term reflects the traditional spatial orientation found in old documents, related to the sun's position at noon hours.
• Silted brook — An archaic form, regional variant, or specific hydronym attested in old Transylvanian cartographic documents to designate a small watercourse, a silted stream, or an intermittent valley where the ground becomes muddy and soft after rains. In toponymic studies, it is considered a derivative preserved through local dialects from the root of the popular verb 'a amoi' (to soften).
• Propontis — A historical and archaic literary designation attributed to the Sea of Marmara, used primarily in medieval charters and Romanian Byzantine chronicles to indicate the structural water basin located between the Bosphorus and Dardanelles straits, connecting the Pontus Euxinus to the Aegean Sea.
