Thule \Thu"le\, n. [L. Thule, Thyle, Gr. ?, ?.]
   The name given by ancient geographers to the northernmost
   part of the habitable world. According to some, this land was
   Norway, according to others, Iceland, or more probably
   Mainland, the largest of the Shetland islands; hence, the
   Latin phrase ultima Thule, farthest Thule.
