  From  Easton's  1897  Bible  Dictionary  [easton]: 
 
  Tires 
  "To  tire"  the  head  is  to  adorn  it  (2  Kings  9:30).  As  a  noun  the 
  word  is  derived  from  "tiara,"  and  is  the  rendering  of  the  Heb. 
  p'er,  a  turban"  or  an  ornament  for  the  head  (Ezek.  24:17;  R.V., 
  "headtire;"  24:23).  In  Isa.  3:18  the  word  _saharonim_  is 
  rendered  "round  tires  like  the  moon,"  and  in  Judg.  8:21,  26 
  "ornaments,"  but  in  both  cases  crescents"  in  the  Revised 
  Version.
