THE STRUGGLE BETWEEN THE RIVER AND THE SAND. 175
vanced a gigantic step, or rather two or three gigantic steps, towards the west, for the presence of these old river-courses proves that migration has taken place not one stage only, but two or three stages. Here then we have a convincing proof of the theory I put forward several years ago, namely that the Tarim is moving to the right, that is to say, the lower Tarim is shifting its bed to the south-west.
The sharp bend which pene-
trates into the sand is known as

Opposite the next indentation into the sand an arik goes off to Kuslek, and near it stand some Eleagnus trees, some of them about forty years old. In the old bed leading to the Ara-tarim there exists a pool called Ak-iti-sokkan-tschol; here are some shepherds' huts,

existing channel opposite the canal of Chodai Värdi-tschapghan. About midway _ it is further connected with the existing Tarim by a canal Adoko-kok-alasi, which was dry when we saw it, but is in part filled with water at high flood. The country in the vicinity is called Adok-ottogho. This former river-bed demonstrates that the Tarim can indeed sometimes shift to the left. The probable explanation is that the river made such a violent assault upon the sand as to fill up and choke its own channel. The present channel too is of quite recent formation, for its poplars, which are indeed quite rare, cannot well be more than thirty years old. Even
