Tamarus
TAMARUS
TAMARUS(Tamaro), a river of Samnium, which falls into the Calor (Calore), about 5 miles above Beneventum. Its name is known only from the Itinerary of Antoninus, which places a station super Tamarum fluviumon the road from Bovianum to Equus Tuticus. ( Itin. Ant. p. 103.) The line of this road is not very clear, but the modern name of the Tamaroleaves no doubt of the river meant. It rises in the mountains near Saepinum, only a few miles from Bovianum, and flows with a general direction from N. to S. till it joins the Calor as above indicated.
