Agron (given Name)
Agron is a given name. It is a popular male Albanian name. History Agron appears as a name in John Rider (bishop), Rider's English-Latin reference dictionary of the 17th century, with the entry reading: "Agron, ita dict. quod in agris natus esset. The name of a King; also a Physician, Physitian." The Latin translates to "so-called he who was born in the countryside". Similar later works, including by Robert Ainsworth (lexicographer), Robert Ainsworth and Thomas Mortimer (writer), Thomas Mortimer, focused more on the physician bearing the name (now known in English as Acron), writing how he was said to have set large fires around Athens and successfully stopped the Plague of Athens.

Agron (surname)
Agron refers to two surnames with the same spelling, one Jewish and one Hispanic. Etymology As such, there are two origins, the Hebrew Agron (אגרון) and (with Slavic suffix) Agronsky, and the Spanish and Galician Agrón. The Jewish names are patronymics of the biblical Aaron, first high priest of the Jews and brother of Moses, and are two of many Jewish surnames related to him. In the United States, the surname is transliterated from "Ahron" in Eastern Europe usage, though "Agron" and "Ogron" were commonly used in Russia. The Hispanic name is a habitational surname, directly meaning "by the dry ground" and deriving from two towns of the same name, one in A Coruña and one in Granada. People Notable people with the surname include: * Agron journalism family :*Gershon Agron (born Agronsky; 1894–1959), American-Israeli journalist and mayor of Jerusalem ::* Hassia Levy-Agron (1923–2001), Israeli dancer (daughter-in-law of Gershon) ::*Martin Agronsky (born Agrons; 1915– ...

Agron (mythology)
In Greek mythology, Agron( Ancient Greek: Ἄγρων "wild" or "rustic") was a son of Eumelus and brother of Byssa and Meropis.Antoninus Liberalis15/ref> Mythology The family dwelt at Meropis in Kos and worshipped Gaia, who rewarded them with all kinds of goods. However, they were quite impious towards other gods and never participated in religious festivals. Agron was especially disrespectful towards Athena, Artemis and Hermes, and whenever someone invited him or his sisters to take part in a ritual in honor of one of these gods, he would decline the invitation and scorn the deities. Eventually, the three gods paid Agron a visit at night, Hermes being disguised as a shepherd, and Athena and Artemis as country maidens. Hermes invited Eumelus and Agron to a ritual feast in honor of himself, and suggested that they send Byssa and Meropis to the sacred grove of Athena and Artemis where other girls were gathering. On hearing this, Meropis began to ridicule the name of Athe ...

Agron Of Lydia
Agron (fl. c.1192 BC) was a legendary king of Lydia who is named by Herodotus as the first of the Lydian Heraclid dynasty. Before he assumed the throne, the ruling family had been the Maeonian line of Lydus, from whom the country's name was derived. According to Herodotus, the Heraclid dynasty in Lydia reigned continuously through 22 generations for 505 years. The last of the line was Candaules, whose date of death was c.687 BC, so Herodotus' computation suggests c.1192 BC for Agron's accession.

Agron (dictionary)
The ''Agron'' () was Saadia Gaon's first work, completed in 913CE, when he was 20 years old. The book is also known by its Judeo-Arabic name 'אצול אלשער אלעבראני' (''The Rudiments of Hebrew Poetry''). The ''Agron'' compiled by Saadia Gaon is not a Hebrew language dictionary in the sense that it does not define the different meanings of words or radicals. Instead, it is a lexicographical reference book for '' payṭanim'' which includes in its first section words arranged alphabetically by first letter, for use in making acrostics at the beginning of the poetic line; in the second section are words arranged alphabetically by last letter (syllable), for use in making rhymes at the end of the poetic line. The work consists of two parts, and was intended to be used in versification, in which acrostics and rhyme were the chief requisites. In a later edition, Saadia added the Arabic translation of each word, and also included passages concerning various "memorable subjec ...

Agron House
Agron House ( he, בית אגרון, Beit Agron) is a landmark in downtown Jerusalem. Constructed in memory of Gershon Agron, it has housed various Israeli national institutions in pursuit of the arts. It is located at 37 Hillel Street. Planning and construction After Jerusalem mayor Gershon Agron died in office in 1959, a group of his friends formed the Agron Committee. This committee tasked themselves with creating a suitable tribute to the life of Agron. They first convened a year after his death in Moshe Sharett's room in the Savoy Hilton Hotel in New York to plan a memorial project dedicated to Agron. Sharett was the group's chairman, with Israel Goldstein and Meyer Weisgal co-chairs; Goldstein and Weisgal had previously worked on the construction of the Jewish Palestine Pavilion at the 1939 World's Fair together. The cornerstone of Beit Agron was laid on 10 October 1961 by Sharett. Cemented into it was a scroll signed by Agron's widow Ethel, his children Danny and Varda, ...
