cyrene کرینا Explanation: Today کرینا is a historical site located near the city of شحات in Libya (refer to the first link). But when I searched it in the Bible, I found something amazing; "Cyrene" is appeared in Mark 15:21. In the Persian translation I have, it's translated as قیروان, but when I searched قیروان, amazingly I found that it's a city in Tunisia!
