The province of Sind, on the Lower Indus, below the great confluence of the rivers, which had been entrusted by Alexander to Peithōn, son of Agēnōr, remained under Greek influence for a period still shorter. At the time of the second partition of the Macedonian empire in 321 B. C. at Triparadeisos, Antipater was avowedly unable to exercise any effective control over the Indian Rājas,² and Peithōn had been obliged already to retire to the west of the Indus.
