I assume this is about the Civil War. Northern Historians frequently named battles after bodies of water, rivers, or streams; while Southern Historians preferred to name battles after local towns or cities. Thus, The Battle of Shiloh Creek occurred at Pittsburgh Landing.

You will sometimes even see a difference of opinion as to who won a particular battle.

The great Union victory of Antietam Creek was also the site of the great Confederate victory of Sharpsburg, Maryland.
