Terme River
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Terme River (Turkish: Terme Çayı; Greek: Θερμώδων, Thermōdōn) is in the border of Terme district, located in central northern Turkey between the cities Ordu and Samsun. The river flows about 50 km east of the coastal town Samsun into the Black Sea.
The region consists of a fertile, rather secluded, plain. High mountains can be found to the south and east, and the Yeşil River flows in the west.
In Mythology the legendary capital of the Amazons, Themiscyra, was found on the river Thermodon.
