In Arrian's ''Periplus Ponti Euxini'', it is called the ''Acampsis'' ( el, Άκαμψις); Pliny may have confused it with the ''Bathys''. Procopius writes that it was called Acampsis because it was impossible to force a way through it after it has entered the sea, since it discharges its stream with such force and swiftness, causing a great disturbance of the water before it, that it goes out for a very great distance into the sea and makes it impossible to coast along at that point. In English, it was formerly known as the Boas, the Churuk, o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
