yes again, to the year 326 BCE.
At the banks of India’s Beas River, —
which you may know as Hyphasis from Western writers —
the furthest point of Alexander’s campaign,
and all the world he has ever known.
Chapter Seven 157-158
Boy am I glad to be done with the medieval manuscripts. They were so time-costly to finish… which would be fine if not for the hundreds of projects that I am drowning in this summer. @_@
Footnotes:
Shoutout to this bro for vlogging his adventures around the specific part of the Beas River I had so much trouble finding reference for. True MVP. So thorough with the recordings.
– Most references tend to show the river too far into the north of Alexandria on Hyphasis, which was located near Amritsar. I cannot be zone in accurately where exactly Alexander hung out, but the Beas township in Amritsar is as close as anyone can get, especially for reference.
