Etymology
According to Rohlfs, the toponym may derive from it grc καμαρωτός vaulted, arched, an evidence of the Greek influence in this area. On the other hand, Battisti connecs the placename with la camur curved, bent, crooked and with several Latin toponyms such as la Cameria and la Camerinum, suggesting a common origin.
