About: Pocomoke River

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Pocomoke River stretches approximately 66 miles (106 km) from southern Delaware through southeastern Maryland in the United States. At its mouth, the river is essentially an arm of Chesapeake Bay, whereas the upper river flows through a series of relatively inaccessible wetlands called the Great Cypress Swamp, largely populated by Loblolly Pine, Red Maple and Bald Cypress. The river is the easternmost river that flows into Chesapeake Bay."Pocomoke" locally /ˈpoʊkoʊmoʊk/, though traditionally interpreted as "dark (or black) water" by local residents, is now agreed by scholars of the Algonquian languages to be derived from the words for "broken (or pierced) ground."

  • Der Pocomoke River ist ein 106 Kilometer langer Zufluss der Chesapeake Bay in den US-Bundesstaaten Delaware, Maryland und Virginia. Er verläuft im südlichen Abschnitt der Delmarva-Halbinsel und ist in Maryland als National Wild and Scenic River ausgewiesen. Das Wort Pocomoke entstammt den Algonkin-Sprachen und bedeutet so viel wie „Es ist durchbohrt“ oder „unebener Grund“ (de)
  • Pocomoke River s'étend sur environ 106 km du sud du Delaware jusqu’au sud-est du Maryland aux États-Unis. À son embouchure, la rivière est essentiellement un bras de la baie de Chesapeake, tandis que la rivière supérieure coule à travers une série de zones humides relativement inaccessibles appelée le Great Cypress Swamp, en grande partie peuplée par de pins torches, d'érables rouges et de cyprès chauves. C'est la rivière la plus à l'est qui se jette dans la baie de Chesapeake. (fr)
