Theogefyro canyon at Lithino village of Epirus, Greece
The Thyamis (Greek: Θύαμις), also known as Glycis or Kalamas, is a river in the Epirus region of Greece. It flows into the Ionian Sea. The names of the Chameria region (Tsiamouria in Greek), as well as the former Cham minority, derive from the river's name. Thyamis in ancient Greece was mentioned by Pausanias as forming the boundary between Thesprotis and Kestrine. Some Renaissance scholars believed that the English River Thames owed its name to the River Thyamis, as early Celtic tribes were thought to have migrated from the Epirus region to England. While this belief influenced the modern spelling of the English river's name, it is no longer regarded as credible. Theogefyro is an area inside the formed gorge of Kalams river. Theogefyro in Greek means the Gods bridge. They named it by this because there is a rocky natural formation that looks like a bridge. So because nature created they call it the bridge of God or the God's bridge { (Theo(God)-gefyro(bridge) }.
