or SOANE, a river of India, rises in the territory of Nagpore, on the lofty table-land of Ulmmunkuntuk, 4 or 5 miles E. of the source of the Nerbudda. It flows at first north-west; and after leaving Nagpore, separates the British district of Saugor and Nerbudda from the Rajah of Rewa's dominions. Further down, it turns and flows alternately north-east and east, through the territories of Rewa; traverses the British district of Mirzapoor; and finally separates that of Shahabad from those of Behar and Patna. It falls into the Ganges 10 miles above Dinapore, after a course of 465 miles. Its tributaries almost all join it from the right or south-west side; the chief of them are the Rehund, Kunker, and Kool. Below the confluence of the last of these the river is broad and deep, and is navigable during the rainy season for boats of 10 or 12 tons, though the passage is tedious and dangerous.
