*****GK: There is the Hypanis which joins the
Borysthenes; and then the Hypanis which flows into the
sea of Azov; and yet another Hypanis in India: cf. my
"Scythia 4" Stryzhak scan. Cf. also Trubachov's
article in "Voprosi Iazikoznaniia", 1976, n.4, pp.
39-63. He investigates the Indic connection.******
