RIVER THYAMIS

The 'River Thyamis' is a river in the Epirus region of Greece. It is also known as the 'Kalamas River'.
Some renaissance scholars believed that the English River Thames owed its name to the River Thyamis, as early Celtic tribes are thought to have migrated from the Epirus region to England. Whilst this belief influenced the modern spelling of the English river's name, it is no longer regarded as credible.
