The origin of the name Rheni As rivers originate from a source and grow through tributaries, experience and new ideas come together at Rheni. The Romans called the Rhine river Rhenus. Names of rivers are in many cases the oldest layer of geographic names and often come from Celtic times in our part of Europe. An initial “r” is found in many river names. The Rhone originates in the same country as the Rhine. Ruhr and Rur are two tributaries of the Rhine, and a Röhr flows through the Sauerland mountains. Ancient language relationship is found in the Greek phrase panta rei (everything is in flux). This is how the name Rhenus can be interpreted as the “flowing, hasting” and thus become the symbol of the world’s principle of being.
