Tamesis

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tamesis was the ancient name for the River Thames. There may have been an eponymous goddess of the same name.

Sculptures entitled Tamesis and Isis by Anne Seymour Damer can be found on the bridge at Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire. The original terracotta and plaster models were exhibited at the Royal Academy, London, in 1785. They are now on show at the River and Rowing Museum in Henley.
