It has been discovered that this book:
Contains significant amounts of material plagiarized from Wikipedia articles. (Some other books from the same publisher also have this problem). There is no practical way of determining which material came from Wikipedia, and which came from other sources. Further, widespread plagiarism is an indication of poor scholarship. For those reasons, and according to Wikipedia policy, WP:CIRCULAR, I will deleting all citations to the book. However I will not delete the material that cites it, as there's no indication that the material is inaccurate.

For possible inclusion in this page (but so far lacking substantial references): According to the enwiki page History of the Punjab, the Ravi river was called Hydraotis by the greeks in the time of Alexander the Great. The name also appears in four maps of the phases of Alexander's Mallian Campaign, plus (misspelled?) as Hydroatis in the file /info/en/?search=File:AlexanderConquestsInIndia.jpg (used in several enwiki articles) depicted as flowing into the Chenab river (Acesines).
