Description
Porus or Poros, was a king of the Pauravas, whose territory spanned the region between the Hydaspes (River of Jhelum) and Acesines (Chenab River), in what is now the Punjabi region of the Indian Subcontinent. He is credited to have been a legendary warrior with exceptional skills. Porus fought against Alexander the great in the Battle of the Hydaspes, thought to be fought at the site of modern-day Mong, Punjab, Pakistan. Though not recorded in any available ancient Indian source, Ancient Greek historians describe the battle and the aftermath of Alexander's victory. After the defeat and arrest of Porus in the war, Alexander asked Porus how he would like to be treated. Porus, although defeated, being a valiant, proud king, demanded that he be treated like a king. Alexander was reportedly so impressed by his adversary that he not only reinstated him as a satrap of his own kingdom, but also granted him dominion over lands to the south-east extending until the Hyphasis.
