Alexandria on the Indus

Alexandria on the Indus (Greek: Ἀλεξάνδρεια ἐπὶ Ἰνδῷ, likely modern Uch, Pakistan) was a city founded by Alexander the Great at the junction of the Indus and the Acesines river.

[1][2] Arrian tells that colonists, mainly Thracian veterans and natives, were settled there.

[3][4] The satrap of the west bank of the Indus, Philip, son of Machatas, was put in charge of building the city: Today, the remains of the Greek town are thought to be inside the citadel mound, although a shift in the river has caused significant damage to the mound.

A UNESCO listing applies to the site.
