See Septuaginta in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /sep.tu.aˈd͡ʒin.ta/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [sept̪uäˈd͡ʒin̪t̪ä] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) Forms: Septuāgintā [canonical, neuter]
Etymology: Ellipsis of earlier descriptional names such as septuaginta translatio (“translation by the seventy”) and septuaginta interpretes (“the 70 interpreters”), calques of Koine Greek names such as οἱ ἐβδομήκοντα ἑρμηνευταί (hoi ebdomḗkonta hermēneutaí, “the 70 interpreters”) and οἱ Ο′ (hoi O′, “the LXX”), deriving from the popular (but probably mistaken) belief that its translation of the Torah had been produced in 72 days by a team of 72 Jewish scholars from Jerusalem (6 from each tribe) summoned to Alexandria during the reign of Ptolemy II.
