The account of Herodotus III. 94-98 seems to suggest that it extended eastwards beyond the Beas as far as the river Sarasvatī which flowed past the *Marudhanvan* in the days of the *Mahābhārata* (see 22n 2 *ante*; *cf*., desert beyond the Beas, ANM, p. 16) and finally disappeared in the sands of Rājaputāna. “Eastward of India lies a tract which is entirely sand . . . the Indians dwell nearest to the east, and the rising of the Sun. Beyond these the whole country is desert on account of the sand.” The Sattagydians, the Gandarians, the Dadicæ and the Aparytae, constituted the seventh satrapy and the Indians the twentieth (Herod.

| 265 | | After his (Sandrocottus') victory he forfeited, by his tyranny, all title to the name of a liberator, for he oppressed with servitude the very people whom he had emancipated from foreign thraldom Justin). The tyranny of the *dushṭāmātyas* is known to Indian literature. But the sovereign himself is noted for his justice in early Maurya times. |
