Almanzora (river)

The Almanzora River or River Almanzora is a river in the province of Almería, Andalusia, Spain. It is roughly 90 kilometres in length. For millennia, it has provided a route between the Mediterranean Sea and the interior of Andalusia. The Ancient Romans called it the Surbo, from Latin flumen superbum, "superb river", for its terrible floods. Its present name derives from the Arabic al-Mansura (المنصورة), "place of victory".
