a province of Asia, subject to the great mogul. It is seated on the river Indus, on the banks of which there are corn and cattle; but the west part, which is bounded by Sagestan in Persia, is a desert. The inhabitants are strong, robust, and apt to mutiny; for which reason the mogul has a garrison at the chief town, called Buckor, which is seated in an island made by the river Indus. They are all Mahometans, and drive a great trade in cotton cloth, and other Indian commodities. E. Long. 70° 5'. N. Lat. 28° 10'.
