TAMARICI
Eth.
TAMARICI a Gallaecian tribe on the river Tamaris in Hispania Tarraconensis. (
Plin. Nat. 4.20. s. 34; Mela, 3.1.)
According to Pliny (
30.2. s. 18) there were certain noted springs in their territory, which are undoubtedly the same described by Florez (
Cantabria, p. 4) near the hermitage of
S. Juan de fuentas divinas, 12 Spanish miles E. of
Leon, and 5 N. of
Saldanna. (Cf. Ukert, ii. pt. i. p. 302, note 80.)
