Unfortunately we cannot be certain as to the river on whose banks the encounter between the Yavanas and the Çuṅgas took place; but the choice seems to lie between the Kālī Sindhu, a tributary of the Charmaṇvatī (Chambal) flowing within a hundred miles of Madhyamikā (near Chitor), which was besieged by the Yavanas (p. 544), and the Sindhu, a tributary of the Jumna which would naturally be passed by invading forces on the route between Mathurā (Muttra) and Prayāga (Allahābād).
