¹ Plut. *Alex.* 62. It is doubtful whether these altars were on the right or left bank of the river. Pliny, VI, § 62, puts them on the eastern bank, but the historians say nothing of Alexander's crossing the Hyphasis. Plutarch's phrase about the Mauryan kings, διαβαίνοντες (not διαβάντες) σέβονται is ambiguous.
