1694. The great historical, geographical and poetical dictionary by Louis Moreri.

Issedon, A City of Scythia, which was situate beyond Mount Imaus, a Part of Mount Taurus. Some Modern Geographers suppose it to be the same that is now called Ciracoram, in Great Tartary. Ancient Authors make mention of another Issedon in Scythia, which is supposed the same with Suchur, or Synchun, in the Province of Tangut, or Tanju, towards Cathay.
