Himeras fl. (modern Salso or Imera Meridionale) is a river of Sicily. Two ancient rivers named Himeras cause some confusion, as one (modern Fiume Grande) flowed south to north emptying into the Tyrrhenian Sea while the other flowed north to south, emptying into the Gulf of Gela.

Hyllos (river) — by C. Foss — last modified Aug 23, 2023 04:11 PM

An ancient river of Asia Minor, mentioned by Homer and later authors. BAtlDir, following RE, tentatively identifies it with the modern Kum Çayı, but on BAtlas map 56 G4, the drainage labeled is the upper portion of what OpenStreetMap and Geonames now call the Gördes Çayı. Kum Çayı is not reliably recorded in either of these modern digital resources. BAtlas makes this Hyllos topographically distinct from the the Roman-era Hyllos (modern Demirci Çay), which is an earlier right tributary of the Hermos (modern Gediz Çay).

Hypios (river) — by C. Foss — last modified Mar 04, 2021 08:52 PM

A river mentioned in ancient sources. Modern scholars identify it with the lower/larger (Büyük) course of the modern Melen Çay (Buyukmelen), which drains the marshy Efteni Golü (much diminished from its pre-modern extent). Ancient people seem to have extended the "Hypios" name past the lake and up one of its tributaries, but scholarly opinion is divided as to whether this was the modern Ugursuyu/Ogursu/Akarsu (Robert 1980, whence Foss in BAtlas) or the upper/smaller (Küçük) Melen Çayı (Strobel in New Pauly).
