τοπάζιον, ὁ,
a gem of green hue [Refs 1st c.AD+], hence probably chrysolite or peridot, [Refs 1st c.AD+]:—also τόπαζον, τό, Eust.ad [Refs 2nd c.AD+]; τοπάζιον, [LXX+1st c.BC+] gives the name of topazon (variant topazium) to two varieties. (From the Trogodyte language accusative to [Refs 1st c.AD+] [same place]; perhaps the same as ταβάσιος.)
