The Tar River is a river that is approximately 215 miles (346 km) long, in northeast North Carolina flowing generally southeast to an estuary of Pamlico Sound. The Tar River becomes the tidal Pamlico River once it underpasses the U.S. Highway 17 Bridge in Washington, North Carolina. Among the towns and cities along its course are Louisburg, Rocky Mount, Tarboro, and Greenville. The village of Old Sparta was formerly an important riverport on the Tar, but declined in the 20th century. One account of the significance of the river's name comes from the Civil War.

  • Тар (англ. Tar River) — река в Северной Каролине. Длина составляет 346 км. Река Тар в целом протекает на юго-восток и становится Памлико за мостом автодороги № 17 в городе Вашингтон (Северная Каролина). Река Памлико впадает в одноимённый залив. Исторически прибрежная Северная Каролина, покрытая сосновыми лесами, была источником корабельной сосны, из которой изготавливались мачты, и смолы для британского кораблестроения. Река получила название по старинному главному пути для барж, гружёных смолой, направляющихся к Атлантическому океану (англ. tar означает смола). (ru)
