In ancient times it was called Támaris, its name being related to that of the River Tamar in Cornwall. It was from the lands north of this river that the Spanish County of Trastámara and the royal House of Trastámara derive their name (Tras-Támara meaning "across the Tambre"). Tamarix may derived its name from the river.
