Pliny the Elder describes the ancient Prinas River as a navigable river that debouches into the Ganges. The Barrington Atlas Map-by-Map Directory indicates that the Prinas corresponds to the modern Tons River. The Tons is a modern-day tributary of the Yamuna River (the ancient Iomanes/Iobares), itself the second-largest tributary of the Ganges.
