「峯」

sir kitaymedium
Hirayama compares the historical record with sirkitay “summit”, using place-name evidence. Tamura independently gives kitay “top, summit”, including nupuri kitay. These support the summit analysis, while the whole sir compound and joined versus spaced spelling remain less securely established than the component kitay.
