HelpDo you have info?
in reply to a message by Kirke
Are they just different forms of Tomyris? Where did you get them from? (Sorry, just curious)
I think they look a bit better because the y in Tomyris bugs me a bit. Not really though.

They are the forms used in Italian when speaking of the historical queen Tomyris. I suppose you could consult Italian translations of the ancient authors that mentioned her for proof(Herodotus, Cassiodorus, Strabo, and others).
This is the Italian language wikipedia page about queen Tomyris. It uses ancient sources and I find it to be accurate:
