It's a branch of #toponomastics, the study of #toponyms (the proper names of places), which in turn is a branch of #onomastics, the study of #orthonyms (proper names).

#Hydronym and #hydronomastics both derive from Ancient #Greek ὕδωρ / húdōr (water) + ὄνομα / ónoma (name). The Greek island of Skiatho...
#Hydronyms tend to outlast other #toponyms, even when new #languages and cultures displace earlier ones.

#England, #EastAnglia, #Essex, and #Sussex are named for the #Angles and #Saxons; but #Trent, #Ouse, #Thames, #Severn, and #Avon are older #Celtic and #RomanoBritish names. A map showing the main rive...

Any recognition of the 1915 Genocide against #Armenians, #Greeks, #Chaldeans, #Assyrians, & #Syriacs-#Arameans must include #Kurds as co-criminals of the Genocide. Kurds murdered/raped/forcibly expelled 2.5 million Christians during the 1915 Armenian/Christian Genocide.
This book, “Shall This Nation Die,” by Chaldean Catholic Priest Naayem, an eyewitness to horrors of 1915 Christian Genocide, documents key role of Kurds in committing genocide against indigenous Middle East Christians. @reaIDonIdJTrump @POTUS @EmmanuelMacron @VP @SecPompeo
