Greek kings like Alexander called it Caucasus(kush) Indicus(hindu) , which is the Greek pronunciation of Hindu Kush. The sanskrit word anKush also means to stop, it used to stop and turn the Indus river, then it was called Sindhu Ankush, which became Hindu Kush. 103.206.177.49 (talk) 13:01, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
अंकुश (Ankush) = (english meaning -Curb)
Ankush के पर्यायवाची: प्रतिबंध, रोक, नियंत्रण, संयम, निरोध!
Sindhu = indus river!
Sindhu ankush = Hindu kush = indicus caucasus! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.206.177.49 (talk) 13:04, 22 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Caucasus Indicus" is Classical Latin, not Greek, so it could not have been used by Alexander who was a Greek speaker. The rest of what you said can be ignored as it is not supported by any sources. شاه عباس (talk) 12:36, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Kushan Empire predates Islam
Hind is short for Hindustan
Kush is short for Kushans
