The Sar is a river in Galicia, Spain. Rising near Santiago de Compostela, it flows through the A MaÃÂa valley for over before entering the Ulla River, near Padrón.
Pomponius Mela (d. 45 AD) mentions it (Sars) in De situ orbis libri III and the Galician poet and novelist RosalÃÂa de Castro wrote a well-known collection titled En las Orillas del Sar ("On the Banks of the Sar") in Castilian Spanish.
