Information
has glosseng: The Karkheh or Karkhen (known as the Choaspes in ancient times; also called Eulæus; Hebrew: אולי Ulai ) is a river in Khūzestān Province, Iran (ancient Susiana) that rises in the Zagros Mountains, and passes north of Shush (ancient Susa), eventually falling into the Tigris just below its confluence with the Euphrates very near to the Iran-Iraq border. Its peculiarly sweet water was sacred to the use of the Persian kings. The river is mentioned in the Bible, Book of Daniel 8:2,16, and should not be confused with the Choaspes River in modern-day Afghanistan, which flows into the Indus.
