PATAMIA

Patamia is typically Calabrese, it should derive from dialectal modifications of the Greek word potamos (river), perhaps indicating the proximity of a watercourse with respect to the family home, of Gioia Tauro (RC) and Simeri Crichi (CZ), traces we find this surname in Bagnara Calabra (RC) since the 1700s.
