Passing on to the other literary evidence, we find in the \*Raghuvamśa\* frequent reference to boats and ships. Raghu in the course of his digvijaya conquered Bengal which was protected by a fleet (nausādhanotyatān).⁴⁴ In another place it is mentioned that Raghu marched on Persia through the land route, and not by the sea route, thereby showing that the latter was the more common route.⁴⁵
