The **Trionto** is a river in the [Calabria](/source/Calabria) region of southern [Italy](/source/Italy). It was known in ancient times as the **Traeis**.[1] It rises in the [Sila Mountains](/source/Sila_Mountains) and initially flows to the east but gradually changes direction to the north. It drains into the [Gulf of Taranto](/source/Gulf_of_Taranto) at Pantano Martucci after a course of about 40 kilometers. Its main tributaries are the La Manna, Macrocioli, Ortiano and Laurenzana. It has a drainage basin of 288 square kilometres (111 sq mi).[2] Along its course it passes [Longobucco](/source/Longobucco), [Cropalati](/source/Cropalati) and [Crosia](/source/Crosia). The river is mainly seasonal. The [ancient Greek](/source/Ancient_Greece) city [Sybaris on the Traeis](/source/Sybaris_on_the_Traeis) was located near the course of the river, but its location has not been found.
