Pulau Saigon

Pulau Saigon (alternatively spelled as Pulo Saigon) was a small island in the Singapore River. It used to be located between the banks of Robertson Quay.
The island was shown as a mangrove marsh in an 1839 map. Subsequent maps have shown it to be located closer to the northern bank of the river. It was first featured by name as "Kampong Saigon" on a map of 1878.
In 1888, British projects to increase the width and depth of the Singapore River made it easier to access existing warehouses on Pulau Saigon, which in turn made other parts of the island commercially viable. Quays and bridges were built and many of the island's original buildings were demolished and replaced by those from new industries ranging from slaughtering cattle, manufacturing pottery, and burning rubbish. These former industrial enterprises of Pulau Saigon make it useful for archaeological study.
Pulau Saigon became an extension of the mainland when the western arm of the river was drained in 1972. By 1988, the only extant buildings at Pulau Saigon were old warehouses in disrepair. In 1991, the eastern arm of the river was drained as well and the island was completely merged with the mainland at Magazine road. It is no longer depicted on modern maps of Singapore.
In February and March 2016, an exhibit at the Archaeological Library of the National University of Singapore by Debbie Ding featured speculative examples of artefacts from the island.

Geography.
The Bansloi River originates on Bans Hill in Sahebganj district of Jharkhand, flows through Pakur district of Jharkhand and Birbhum and Murshidabad districts of West Bengal before flowing into the Bhagirathi north of Jangipur
The western half of Murshidabad district slopes eastwards toward the Bhagirathi; a number of the hill streams do not find their way directly into that river; they are intercepted by beels or marshes. The large beels act as reservoirs during a flood absorbing some of the excess water carried down by these streams, and also drain the excess water through the streams, emanating out of them. The Bansloi enters the northern part of the district.
The combined catchment area of the Pagla–Bansloi river system is .
Floods.
A number of rivers that originate on the Chota Nagpur Plateau or in Jharkhand, including the Bansloi, flow into Birbhum district. These rivers then enter the Murshidabad and Bardhaman districts before joining the Bhagirathi. They generate flood because of high rainfall in their basins and limited carrying capacity of the river Bhagirathi between the towns of Jangipur and Kalna. In this reach the Bhagirathi has discharge carrying capacity of maximum . If all the rivers receive rainfall simultaneously in their catchment areas they can generate run-off volume of any amount up to at their outfall at the Bhagirathi. Thus floods are caused regularly.

History and memory of the place.
The name of the town has not changed over the years, and this name is taken from the word "juran" "جرن", which is the rocky expanse of water in the rocks, as if the village, in its low location between the neighboring villages, was shaped like a water jar, and the name was reduced to green, and then it was feminized with time, perhaps to endearment in the place, so it became The name "Jurayn" "جرين", and it became known to this village to distinguish it from villages similar to it, because its name became associated with the clan (Shawabkeh) that inhabited the village here in the eighteenth century, and then its name was known as Jurenet Alshawabkeh "جرينة الشوابكة", and after an actual and tangible move took place in it. The framework of the agricultural sector in it, and this was observed in the agricultural activity, and reflected greenery, fruits, and farmers throughout the area of the place, the people of the village began to call them among themselves the name of Junaynah which mean garden instead of Juraynah.
With this simplicity, the elders of the village talk about Junaynah, the interpretation of the meaning of the name, the simplification of its connotations related to the interpretation of an incubator of water, and a comfortable connotation of the place between the surrounding heights, and therefore we did not go into much detail in the semantics of the interpretation and were satisfied with what we extracted from the words of the people of the village.

As for the new borders, which are after the expansion of the Amman Municipality, and the annexation of Hisban lands to it, the change of borders took place on the northern side of Juraynah, as it became bordered on the north by the borders of the Amman Municipality, and the people of the village referred to it as a boundary (the German Jordanian University and the Al-Mashqar Agricultural Station), and from the west. Granada and El-Arish, and from the south, Madaba, and from the east, Manga and the Capital Governorate.
