Periam (until 1925 Periamoș; ; ; ) is a commune in Timiș County, Romania. It is composed of a single village, Periam, and also included Pesac until it broke off as a separate commune in 2007. == Geography == Periam is located in the northwest of the Banat Plain, in a subdivision of the Mureș Plain called Aranca Plain. It borders Șeitin and Semlac (Arad County) to the north, Satu Mare (Arad County) to the east, Sânpetru Mic to the southeast, Pesac to the south and Sânpetru Mare to the west. === Relief === thumb|left|Aranca Plain as seen from Periam The relief is determined by the Aranca Plain, which represents a wide cone opening of the Mureș Meadow, starting from Periam to the southwest, i.e. from the 90° bend of the Mureș, where the Vinga Plain would continue to the northwest with the Nădlac Plain. This plain is the newest and the lowest Mureș plain, on its center meandering Aranca which still has its origin in the Mureș Meadow, at Sânpetru German (south of Pecica). The altitudes in this area stand at , on some ridges rising to .
=== Hydrography === The hydrographic network is represented by rivers and a system of canals that spread across the commune. Aranca is a river installed on the former riverbeds of Mureș, arranged on a wide area of digression, before damming. Irrigation systems were also built in its basin near Mureș at Periam, Sânpetru Mare, Sânnicolau Mare and Cenad. It has as a left tributary the Galațca, from Jimbolia Plain, which starts from Periam, an even older course of Mureș and which is generally supplied by pumping. The waters of Aranca are supplied by precipitation, from Mureș and from the drainage of the phreatic waters. Mureș – one of the largest rivers in Romania – flows about north of Periam. It forms the natural border of Periam with Arad County. Its average flow at Nădlac is .
