In his important work on the Himalayan Districts of north-western India, E. T.
ATKINSON pays attention chiefly to the Himalaya, and cannot, of course, have much
to say of the mountains north of the Tsangpo. From his résumé of Himalayan
exploration some extracts may be sufficient to give a general idea of his views.
Regarding High Asia as a unity he says: »The Himalaya itself is but the
southern belt of that great girdle of mountains which encloses within them the country
of which the southern half is commonly called Eastern Turkistán. From or through
the southern slope of the Himálaya flow the great rivers known as the Indus, Ganges,
and Brahmaputra. To the east, the continuation of the Himálaya is traced in the
mountain ranges through which flow the Yangtse-chiang and the Hoang-ho, and
which are prolonged to the north in the Ala-shán, Inshán and Khing-han mountains.«¹
In this view he has, no doubt, been misled by Saunders' map.
In his Early attempts at generalization² Atkinson begins with Herbert, and
says that his idea of the country north of India was apparently derived from maps
only. »He considered the upper beds of the Brahmaputra and the Satlej as forming
part of the barrier zone which surrounds the central tract, and not as a part of the
plateau itself.« Herbert was the first to give a systematic account of the Himalaya
as a whole, but »his errors were those of his time, when the knowledge even of
descriptive geography was in its infancy.«
Then Atkinson proceeds to Hodgson, who was the first to explain in a scientific
way the relations between orographical and hydrographical arrangement. »Hodgson's
Himálaya proper is the ghát line or watershed between Tibet and India, and the
watershed between the valleys of the Indus and Sanpu and the great plateau is
called by him Nyenchhen Thangla Chain.«
Richard Strachey was the first to point out distinctly »that the Himalaya was
in truth the broad mountainous slope of the great Tibetan table-land descending to
