(#hjálmr). So ‘kettle’ was likely a contemporary or later development as it spread through #Scandinavia to mean #cauldron, cooking-pot, basin, boiler (see #Katleri), etc. There’s something oddly unquixotic about this! As our hero borrows a barber’s #ShavingBasin for a helmet, so boys will pilfer

#Martsa (Martsa)
Said to be a colloquial or vernacular term for #limestone bank. Who am I to argue? Me. The name is suspected (1 suspecter: me) to be taken from the very rare instances of #BalticKlint associated with a village called Martsa (pop. 30) in #IdaVirumaa

While it seems unlikely that Tondi kõrts was related to #Katleri Mõis, the westernmost property (which also is said to have run a peat-extraction business, hence the -raba ending), #Väo Mõis is understood to have been leased to a #JobstDunte in the 17th C. But which one? As above, see #Tondi.
4/4
roughly equidistant between #Katleri Mõis (///clinked.rare.valve, aka #Tondi Mõis after the nearby inn, so the manor itself had nothing to do with the #Dunte family, although the area had been associated with ‘Tondi’ since the early 1600s,

#Tondiraba (Tondiraba)
‘Ghost’s’ mire/fen/marsh. See #Tondi. This part of #Tallinn was clearly associated with a member of the #Dunte family, since there used to be a Tondi kõrts (inn), aka Tunte Korts or Dunten-Krug (1732) on (now) Narva mnt (///count.youth.planting),

#Katleri (?)
After name of local #poolmõis (see #Mõisa) owner August Kattler who bought it in 1877. Known previously and variously as Karlowa, Karlova or Carlowa Mõis or Карлова (after Carl Nikolai Koch who founded it in the early 1800s) and, once, #Tondi.

Indeed it is, but the story is a bit complicated! Between ±1530-1710 there were 5 family members called #JobstDunte. It seems that JD3 (died 1637) owned #Keila Mõis, JD5? may have owned #Tondi kõrts, #Katleri aka Tondi Mõis and #Väo aka Tondi Mõis. There may have been a JD6. More info coming soon.
#Katleri (?)
After name of local farm estate, known previously and variously as Karlowa, Carlowa, Карлова and, once, #Tondi. Possibly, but only vaguely, related to katel:katla, for kettle (its cognate), cauldron or boiler, from an old Germanic word, *katila, cauldron or pot.
