HIMERA (anc. geog.), the name of two rivers in Sicily; one running northwards into the Tuscan sea, now called Fiume di Termini; and the other southwards into the Libyan; dividing Sicily into two parts, being the boundary between the Syracusans to the east and Carthaginians to the west; not rising from the same, but from different springs.
