The Kassikaityu River is a tributary of the Essequibo River of Guyana. There are a few different theories on the name of the river, one is that it is named for a local variety of catfish, called kassi. Also, according to Barrington Brown it is an Amerindian name meaning 'river of death' and more specifically, Robert Hermann Schomburgk said the name is a corruption of the Taruma name casi-kityu meaning 'dead river'.
