Geography

One theory is that the name "Zeta" derives from an early Greek "Zenta", later romanized in "Senta".
The Zeta River is the most significant tributary of the Morača river. The Perućica hydroelectric power plant near Nikšić uses the waters of the Zeta River to generate power. After that, the river meanders through the Bjelopavlići Valley and Danilovgrad Municipality, until it empties into the Morača a few miles north of Capital City of Podgorica.
Historical monumental Carev Most exists over Zeta to the south of Nikšić town, and the ancient castle of Pandurica is situated nearby.
