The province of Sindh and the people residing in the region are named after the river known as the Sindhu before partition and now called the Indus River. In Sanskrit, Sindhu means “river, stream”, and in particular refers to the Indus river. In 325 BC the Greeks conquered Sindh under the command of Alexander the Great and rendered it as Indos, which is the modern Indus. The Indus Valley civilization is the farthest known settlement of archaeology in prehistoric times.
