Sources

Pliny 6, c. 23.

The journal of the voyage of Onesikritus and Nearchus has neither the names of the stations nor the distances set down in it; and first of all it is not sufficiently explained where and near what river Xylenopolis was--a city founded by Alexander and that from which his expedition started when it left India
