Vedic Reference
English
Āpayā is the name of a river mentioned once only in the
Rigveda, ^1 when it occurs between the Dṛṣadvatī and the
Sarasvatī. Ludwig^2 was inclined to identify it with the
Āpagā as a name for the Ganges, but Zimmer^3 correctly places
it near the Sarasvatī, either as the small tributary which flows
past Thānesar or the modern Indramatī farther west, while
Pischel^4 assigns it to Kurukṣetra, of which the Āpayā is
mentioned as a famous river in the Mahābhārata.^5
