Palamnus

Πάλαμνος

Palamnus (Πάλαμνος, Scyl. p. 10), a river of Illyricum, which flowed into the sea near Epidamnus. This river has been identified with the PANYASUS (Πανυἅσ̓σου ἐκβ., Ptol. 3.13.3); but this latter corresponds better with the GENUSUS (Tjerma or Skumbi): the Palamnus is probably the same as the Dartsch or Spirnatza, to the S. of Durazzo.
