Isis (river) : ウィキペディア英語版
The Isis

The Isis is the name given to the part of the River Thames above Iffley Lock which flows through the university city of Oxford, England, past Christ Church Meadow and the focal point of rowing for Oxford University.
==History==
Historically, and especially in Victorian times, gazetteers and cartographers insisted that the river Thames was correctly named the River Isis〔 Translated into English, with additions and improvements by Dr Edmund Gibson, 1722.〕 from its source until Dorchester-on-Thames, where the river meets the River Thame and becomes the "Thame-isis" (from which the Latin, or pre-Roman Celtic, name ''Tamesis'' is derived), subsequently abbreviated to Thames; current Ordnance Survey maps still label the Thames as ''"River Thames or Isis"'' until Dorchester. Since the early 20th century this distinction has been lost in common usage even in Oxford, and some historians〔 s.v. ''Isis''〕 suggest the name Isis is nothing more than part of Tamesis, the Latin name for the Thames.
