Pliny's hydrography of the Indus system is not so good as that of the Greek
geographers.¹
Regarding the mountain-systems he had nearly the same conception as his
predecessors, making the Imaus, Emodus, Paropanisus and Caucasus to links in
one continuous range, from which the country falls to an immeasurable plain similar
to Egypt.² And he even knows China, which RUBRUQUIS, PLANO CARPINI, and
MARCO POLO had to rediscover twelve centuries later.³
Of DIONYSIUS PERIEGETES who lived in Domitian's time, and his connection
with India, BUNBURY says:⁴ »The especial importance he attaches to the great
Indian promontory as the extreme eastern limit of the world is apparently connected
with the poetical notion that Bacchus had erected there two columns 'by the
farthest shore of the Ocean stream, on the remotest mountains of India, where the
Ganges pours its white waters down to the Nysæan shore'».
QUINTUS CURTIUS has not augmented the classical store of knowledge about
India.⁵
It is of greater interest to hear what ARRIAN, the most brilliant of Alexander's
historians, and at the same time philosopher, statesman, military commander, has to
tell us about those parts of Asia which are the object of this work. He was born
towards the end of the first century A. D. His geography is chiefly based upon
Eratosthenes and Megasthenes and the most trustworthy historians among the con-
temporaries of Alexander.⁶
