It is directly to the south of the ancient provinces of Arachosia and Drangiana , to the east of Carmania and due west of Ancient India . In 325 BCE, Alexander The Great crossed this desert on his way back to Babylon after campaigning in the east. Historians say he lost three-quarters of his army along the way. John Prevas, in his book "Envy of the Gods: Alexander the Great's Ill-Fated Journey Across Asia", says that Alexander wanted to punish his army for refusing to conquer more of India. |
