Geography
English term or phrase: Anti-Taurus
The greatest difficulty here arises from the existence of the Assyrian word misru,"border, boundary," and of the (allied i') geographical names Musri={i) part of Cappadocia,(2)a place in the Anti-Taurus, and M'a;ar= Lower Egypt.

I know that Taurus is جبال طوروس, and Anti-Taurus, from Wikipedia, is "a mountain range in southern and eastern Turkey, curving northeast from the Taurus Mountains"... but does it have a certain name in Arabic?

Arabic translation:جبال طوروس الشرقية
Explanation:
أو سلسلة جبال طوروس الشرقية

أيّ سلسلة جبال تحمل السابقة "آنتي" تعني المقابلة شرقاً
مثل سلسلة جبال لبنان الشرقية
Anti-Lebanon Mountains
وتقابلها سلسلة جبال لبنان الغربية
Lebanon Mountains

الغربية تحمل الاسم فقط من دون الوصف، أما الشرقية فتحمل دائماً سابقة "آنتي" لتمييزها

جبال طوروس الغربية
Taurus Mountains
جبال طوروس الشرقية
Anti-Taurus Mountains
