Litani (Maroni tributary)


The Litani or Itany is a river which forms part of the boundary between Suriname and French Guiana. It is a tributary of the Maroni River. The boundary is disputed, with Suriname also claiming land to the east of the river.
The Litani river flows in the Lawa River near Antecume Pata, and is fed from the Loë en Ulemari creeks. The river was first explored in 1950 by A. Franssen Herderschee into the Tumuk Humak Mountains.
