Chamavi

Years: 1 - 387

The Chamavi are a Germanic tribe of Roman imperial times whose name survives into the Early Middle Ages.

They first appear under that name in the 1st century CE Germania of Tacitus as a Germanic tribe that lived to the north of the Lower Rhine.

Their name probably survives in the region today called Hamaland, which is in the Gelderland province of the Netherlands, between the IJssel and Ems rivers.
