Dṛṣadvatī.—The identification of this river with the Ghaggar (Macdonell, History of Sanskrit Literature, 142) seems to be wrong. It is almost certainly the modern Chitang (which is the correct spelling according to Raverty, Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, 61, 422), or Chitrung (Oldham, Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society, 25, 58; cf. the sketch map opposite p. 49). See Sarasvatī, 2, 435, note ⁴.
