Alexander the Great crossed Hub River through Lasbela on his way back to Babylon after conquering Northwestern India.
Alexander mentions the river name as Arabius, and local people as Oreitans.
[2] The largest town of them was called Rhambacia (Ῥαμβακία).
[3] After Alexander conquered them, he placed Apollophanes as Satrap in the area.
Leonnatus managed to defeat them, killing 6,000 and all their leaders, while losing only 15 cavalrymen and a handful of men, but Apollophanes (the Satrap) was nevertheless killed in the battle.
