About This Book

A collection of English translations of ancient historians presenting the campaigns of Alexander as he advanced into regions corresponding to Afghanistan, the Punjab, Sindh, Gedrosia, and Karmania. The translations recount marches, engagements, encounters with local peoples, and the logistical and environmental hardships faced along the routes. Extensive editorial material — including introductions, annotations, maps, and indices — accompanies the narratives to clarify geographical references and to correct earlier identifications of obscure places mentioned by the classical authorities.

I. GENERAL INDEX

N.B.—When a person or place is designated by two or more names more or less different, these names are generally given together. The modern names of ancient cities, rivers, etc., are bracketed in italics. Proper names which appear in one part of the text spelled after the Greek form, and in another after the Latin, will be found indexed under the Greek form; hence names which commonly begin with C should be looked for under K.
