The Sarasvati River has been mentioned in many Vedas, including Yajur Veda, Atharva Veda, Manu Samhita, Mahabharata, and the Puranas. The Rig Veda mentions the Sarasvati River more than 50 times, describing the descent of the ancient Sarasvati River from its source in the Himalayas to the Arabian Sea:
In mundane terms, the River Sarasvati disappeared from view because her major source of glacier waters from in west Garhwal disappeared. Satellite and 3D images however, have clearly established the entire course of this holy river over a distance of 1,600 km, from Har-ki-Dun (Uttaranchal) to Gujurat, where the water met the ocean at the city of Dwarka. The waters flowed parallel to the Yamuna river for some distance, then joined it, proceeding south as the Saraswati.
Writer, Ron Bach about Saraswati River:
"The very fact that both Sumeru and Kailas mountains are extensively mentioned in Vedic texts indicate that the Vedic cultures were not descendants of Sumerian cultures but rather coexisted simultaneously. This, due to the proven fact that Saraswati River dried up around 2000 BCE
For example, let me highlight a place called Lothal that existed in what now is Gujarat State of India. All the Gujaratis are believed to be descendents of Lothal. However, Lothal was a port that traded in those days with what we refer to as Sumer or Mesopotamia and people from Lothal migrated to all places including Middle East and what is now known as Sri Lanka. Even the pottery, the inscriptions, the insignia, etc. found in Sumer bear a striking resemblance to what was discovered in the Harappa and Mohen Jo Daro civilizations. Apart from Lothal, another place of significance not faraway is Dwarka or rather Bet Dwarka which is now under sea and Dwarka the new Dwarka city is an exact replica of Bet Dwarka. And I must add that the now dried up Saraswati river used to flow in branches through all the above places and reached as far as Middle East via Rajasthan and Gulf of Cambay - both in Gujarat State of India.
These places bear great significance in our origins including that of Caucasians as you will see later in my book - The Star Federations - which will be published anytime soon.
I am rather disappointed by the fact that Sitchin gives so little consideration to Vedic India or Indian sub-continent of that time and in doing so has accidentally ignored the most important clue to our origins. While Sitchin talks about Sumerians, Akkadians, etc., he is either unaware or forgot to mention that Akkadians were a wandering tribe that traveled between Vedic India and Sumer of those days.
Perhaps Dr. David Frawley can throw more light on this subject, as he is one man who has certainly done his Vedic homework."

Hi there, I don't know! All I know is that this river has existed for real and that it will start to flow again, after having dried up around 2000 BC.
