Riphean Mountains
Mountains mentioned by authors of classical antiquity
In Greco-Roman geography, the Riphean Mountains were a supposed mountain range located in the far north of Eurasia. The name of the mountains is probably derived from Ancient Greek: ῥιπή. The Ripheans were often considered the northern boundary of the known world. As such, classical and medieval writers described them as extremely cold and covered in perennial snow. Ancient geographers considered the Ripheans the source of Boreas and several large rivers. The location of the Ripheans, as described by most classical geographers, would correspond roughly with the Volga region of modern-day Russia.
