River of which the Marañón in Peru is a tributary? (6)

I believe the answer is:

amazon

(Other definitions for amazon that I've seen before include "Aggressive female" , "Great river of S America, or a tough woman" , "River in South America" , "banker" , "Female warrior - parrot - South American river" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
