Origin: LW [a loanword which is (probably) not of Pre-Greek origin] Illyr.
Etymology: Acc. to Steph. Byz. s. Δωδών the place had its name from the river Δωδών. The ending -ώνη could be Illyrian, s. Schwyzer 66, Krahe Die Sprache d. Illyrier 1, 107. Krahe, Sprache und Vorzeit 108, compares the river Dodo east of (the?) Deime.
