304 APPENDIX I.
144. Mekala ... ...It is a part of the Vindhya range called
Amarakaṇṭaka wherefrom the river Nar-
madā rises. This fact accounts for its
name Mekalakanyakā.
145. Meru ... ...Mahāmeru, or the mountain situated in the
middle of the Jambūdvīpa. It is encircled
by the Ilāvṛtavarṣa.
146. Yamunā ... ...The river Jumna.
147. Yavana ... ...Rājaśekhara locates the Yavana country
in the western India. It is well known
that the Yavanas were foreigners and they
were originally living in countries beyond
the Indus. Kālidāsa mentions in his Mā-
lavikāgnimitra that the Yavanas were
ruling in the western bank of the river
Sindhu. Very probably, the south-eastern
part of Baluchistan may represent the
Yavana country as mentioned by Rāja-
śekhara and not Girnar, Saurāṣṭra, etc.
since they are mentioned by him separately.
148. Ratnavatī ...A city on the southern ranges of the
Malaya mountain.
149. Ramaṭha ...This country is situated according to Rāja-
śekhara in the northern India. (see Bāla-
bhārata I. 7.). This may represent the
country parts near the Raumaka mountain.
(see Cunningham's A. G. map vi.) The
Viṣṇu-Purāṇa mentions Rāmas along with
the Hūṇas, Sālvas, S'ākalas and others in
the northern India. These Rāmas may
belong to a foreign tribe and may be iden-
tified with the people living at Aornos or
the ruined fortress of Ranigat according
to Cunningham's A. G. pp. 67-84. In
that case, it is also probable that Ramaṭha
of Rājaśekhara may represent the Rāma
tribe of the Viṣṇu Purāṇa.

APPENDIX I. 305
150. Ramyakavarṣa This is the first Varṣa to the north of the
Mahāmeru which is situated in the middle
of the Jambūdvīpa. Mount Nīla forms
the principal mountain of this Varṣa.
151. Rāvaṇagaṅgā According to Rājaśekhara, this is a river in
South India. It is difficult to identify this
river, but it is likely that it was situated
in Ceylon or the Laṅkā of Rāvaṇa. The
Rāvaṇahrada situated in the Himālayas
with an image of Rāvaṇa on its bank
seems, however, to be different from this
Rāvaṇagaṅgā.
152. Laṅkā ... ...This Laṅkā seems to be situated in the
southern-most parts of the Indian penin-
sula, as an island somewhere in the Indian
ocean. The description of this island in
the Rāmāyaṇa as well as in the Kāvya-
mīmāṁsā and the Bālarāmāyaṇa, does not
favour its identification with Ceylon or
Siṁhala. In the Rāmāyaṇa, it is stated
that the river Tāmraparṇī has to be crossed
in order to reach Laṅkā, but this river
does not lead to Ceylon. In the Kāvya-
mīmāṁsā, it is said that the monsoon current
starts from Laṅkā and reaches the Kerala
country immediately after. This will not
be possible should Ceylon be identified
with Laṅkā. In the Bālarāmāyaṇa also,
while describing the returning journey of
Rāma on the Puṣpaka chariot towards
Ayodhyā, Rājaśekhara mentions Laṅkā
and its surrounding places first, then in
succession the ocean, the bridge or the
Setu and the Siṁhala island. He also
states that Rāma and others espied Siṁ-
hala when the Vimāna deviated from the
original path in a different direction. cf.
तिर्यग्विमानगतिनाटिकेन विभीषणः—पश्यस्यग्रे जलधिपरिखं
मण्डलं सिंहलानाम् etc. It is clear from this sta-
39

306 APPENDIX I.
tement that according to Rājaśekhara the
island of Laṅkā is situated on the western
side of the peninsula beyond Travancore,
while Siṁhala or Ceylon is on the eastern
side of it. The identification thus seems
to be improbable.
153. Lāṭa ... ...Southern Gujarat including Khandesh or
the tract of territory situated between the
river Mahī and the lower Narmadā. Ac-
cording to the Kāvyamīmāṁsā, the Lāṭas
talked in Prākṛta language and hated
Sanskrit. According to the Bālarāmāyaṇa,
also, Lāṭa is situated in the western India
to the north of the lower Narmadā.
154. Limpāka... ...Rājaśekhara places this country in North
India. Cunningham identifies (A.G. p. 49)
this with the Lapo of Hiuen Thsang and
Lambatoe of Ptolemy or the present Lam-
ghan which is a small tract of country
lying along the northern bank of the
Kabul river and bounded on the west and
east by Alingar and Kunar rivers and on
the north by the snowy mountains.
155. Lohitagiri ...One of the mountains of the eastern India.
This perhaps represents the eastern range
of the Himālayas through which the river
Lauhitya or Brahmaputra flows.
156. Lauhitya ...The river Brahmaputra.
157. Vaṅga ... ...The name Vaṅga is only applied to the
eastern portion of the delta of the Ganges
on the coast of the bay of Bengal.
158. Vañjurā ... ...Known also as Bañjulā or Mañjulā, a
tributary of the Godāvarī. The Sahyapāda
mountain or western Ghats is said to be
the source of the two rivers.
159. Vatsagulma ...According to Rājaśekhara's conception
Vatsagulma is a city in the country of
Vidarbha (see also Karpūramañjarī I.).

APPENDIX I. 307
This may be identified with the Vaṁśa-
gulma of the Mahābhārata and from this
place the river Narmadā rises. In that
case, this would be situated in the Vidarbha
country. Vātsyāyana in his Kāmasūtra
mentions one Vatsagulmaka as different
from the Vidarbha (see Notes. p. 148).
160. Varuṇa ... ...One of the nine divisions of the Bhārata-
varṣa. From the order in which the names
are mentioned both in the Purāṇas as well
as in the Kāvyamīmāṁsā, some are inclined
to surmise that Varuṇa was situated in
the north-eastern direction of India, and
that it may represent an Indian colony in
Central Asia (see Cunningham's A. G.
Notes p. 754).
161. Varṇā ... ...According to Rājaśekhara, this is a river in
South India, its source being the Sahya
mountain. It may be identified either with
the river Kṛṣṇā or Beṇā which is a branch
of the Kṛṣṇā and rises from the western
Ghats.
162. Vallāra ... ...The country ruled by the Vallāla dynasty
in South India seems to be called Vallāra.
It represents the country near Veṅkaṭagiri
including Chittoor and Vellore in the
Madras Presidency.
163. Valhava ... ...One of the countries in the northern
India. It may be identified with the Valla-
pura (Ballawar) one of the hill states
mentioned in the Rājataraṅgiṇī. It is in
the south-eastern direction of Kashmir.
164. Vāṇāyuja ...A country in the north, generally identified
with Arabia (see N. L. Dey). Kauṭilya
considers the horses of this country as best.
(Kauṭilya-Aśvādhyakṣa).
165. Vānavāsaka ...North Kanara was known by this name.
Ptolemy refers to a town called Banaouasei
(Benavas) on the left bank of the Varadā

308 APPENDIX I.
river which is a tributary of the river
Tuṅgabhadrā in North Kanara. Vanavāsī
was the capital of the Kadamba dynasty
and was founded by the king Mayūrvarman.
166. Vāmanaswāmi This is a temple of Vāmana situated in the
western part of the city of Kanauj (see
Notes p. 243).
167. Vārāṇasī ...Benares.
168. Vārtaghnī ...A river in the western India according to
Rājaśekhara. It may be identified with the
river Vātrak a tributary of the Sābarmatī.
The two rivers meet near Kaira.
169. Vālhīka ... ...The country between Bias and Sutlej
north of Kekaya (see Rāmāyaṇa II. 78.).
According to the Trikāṇḍaśeṣa, it is Tri-
garta. Bāhīkas, Vāhīkas and Jartikas are
identical with the people of this country.
According to the Mahābhārata (Karṇa, ch.
44) Bālhīkas living in Balkh are foreigners
who invaded into India. They had S'ākala
or Sialkot as their capital which was to
the west of the Ravi. (see Cunningham's
Notes p. 686). Kātyāyana derived this
word from बहिस्. Bāhīkas were contem-
ptuous in the public eye, and were com-
pared to cows. Cf. बाहीको गौः ।
170. Vāhīka ... ...Same as Vālhīka.
171. Vitastā ... ...The river Jhelum.
172. Vidarbha ...In ancient days, the country of Vidarbha
comprised the whole of Berar, Khandesh
and portions of the Nizam's territory and
Central Provinces. (see Krathakaiśika).
173. Videha ... ...Tirhut or Tirabhukti.
174. Vinaśana ...The spot where the Sarasvatī disappears
in the desert after taking a westerly course
from the Thāneśvar. It may be located
in Sirhind (Patiala state).

APPENDIX I. 309
175. Vindhya... ...The Vindhya range or Vindhyadakṣiṇapāda
or the Satpura hills between the Tāpī
and Narmadā.
176. Vipās'ā ... ...The Bias or Beas, a tributary of the Sutlej.
177. Vis'ālā ... ...The city of Ujjain, the capital of Avantī.
178. Veṇā ... ...A tributary of the river Kṛṣṇā (see
Varṇā).
179. Vaidis'a ... ...Vidiśā. Bhilsa in Mālwa in the kingdom
of Bhopal on the river Betwa or Vetravatī
26 miles to the north-east of Bhopal. It
was the capital of ancient Daśārṇa, and
Agnimitra ruled in this city as a Viceroy
of his father Puṣyamitra (see Mālavi-
kāgnimitra).
180. Vokkāṇa ... ...Rājaśekhara mentions this as one of the
countries in North India. This country
may be identified with Hiuen Thsang's
O-po-kien which he places between Felana
and Ghazni in Afghanistan. Cunningham
is, however, inclined to identify O-po-kien
of Hiuen Thsang with the name "Afghan"
as the Chinese syllable 'kien' represents
'ghan'. The Indian pronunciation for 'ghan'
is kkana and O-po or Ava may stand for
Vo. Thus Vokkāṇa may be the same as the
O-po-kien or Afghan. The country of
Vokkāṇa may also represent the Wakhan
Pamirs which lies beyond the Hindukush
and the Badaksan.
181. S'aka ... ...Sakasthan where the S'akas first settled
after coming to India. S'ākala or Sialkot
in the Lahore division, Punjab, may be
identified with this S'aka of Rājaśekhara.
S'ākala was first made the capital by Greek
king Demetrius; Mihirakula, the Huṇa,
also made S'ākala as his capital in 510
A. D. S'ākala was in ruins when Hiuen

310 APPENDIX I.
Thsang was on his travels in India (c. 630
A. D.). It is probable that before his
time several Hindu kings had attacked
the S'akas and destroyed their capital at
S'ākala.
182. S'atadru... ...The river Sutlej.
183. S'ālmalidvīpa...One of the seven Dvīpas constituting the
world. This is said to be surrounded by
the ocean of Surā. According to Mr.
N. L. Dey this represents Chaldea in
Mesopotamia.
184. S'iprā ... ...A river on which Ujjayinī is situated.
185. S'uktimān ...The portion of the Vindhya range which
connects the Pāriyātra and the Ṛkṣa-
parvata. This is regarded as one of the
Kulaparvatas of the Kumārīdvīpa or India.
186. S'ūrasena ...Mathura or Muttra was the capital of the
kingdom of S'ūrasenas. Rājaśekhara in-
cludes S'ūrasena among the countries in
North India and mentions that king
Kuvinda once ruled over S'ūrasena.
187. S'ṛṅgavān ...This is said to be the third mountain to
the north of the Mahāmeru which is situa-
ted in the middle of the Jambūdvīpa. It
is regarded as the principal mountain of
the continent Uttarakuruvarṣa.
188. S'oṇa ... ...Rājaśekhara mentions S'oṇa as a Nada in
the eastern India. This is the same Sone
which meets the Ganges near Patna.
189. S'rīparvata ...Rājaśekhara locates this mountain in South
India. S'rīśaila which is situated near
Kurnool and at a distance of 50 miles from
the Kṛṣṇā station of the G. I. P. Railway
appears to be the same as S'rīparvata. It
is a sacred spot and two temples, one
dedicated to Mallikārjuna Mahādeva and
the other to Bhramarāmbā Devī, are
situated here.

APPENDIX I. 311
190. S'vabhravatī ...A river in the western India. This may
be identified with the river Sābarmatī in
North Gujarat which flows into the gulf
of Cambay.
191. S'vetagiri ...This is said to be the second mountain to
the north of the Mahāmeru which is situ-
ated in the middle of the Jambūdvīpa. It
is regarded as the principal mountain of
the continent known as Hiraṇmaya Varṣa.
192. Sarayū ... ...A river in the United Provinces. The
town of Ayodhyā is situated on the bank
of this river and it meets the Ganges
near Chāprā.
193. Sarasvatī ...Rājaśekhara mentions two rivers of the
same name Sarasvatī ; one, he places in the
northern India, while the other in the
west. The first, in the north, is the
river which flows alongside Thāneśvara
and Pṛthūdaka and disappears into the
sandy desert at Vinaśana. The second, in
the west, may be identified with the river
which flows by Pattan in the Baroda terri-
tory and into the little Rann of Cutch.
The source of the latter seems to be the
hills near Udaipur where the Dhebar lake
is situated. (see Devasabhā).
194. Sahuda ... ...Rājaśekhara includes this among the coun-
tries in North India. This may represent
the western Afghanistan where the present
Safadkoh and Sabzawar are situated.
195. Sahya ... ...The northern portion of the western Ghats
situated between the river Kāverī in the
south and the Godāvarī in the north.
196. Sindhu ... ...The river Indus. Rājaśekhara locates this
in North India.
197. Siṁhala ... ...Ceylon. It is different from the Laṅkā.
(see Laṅkā).

312 APPENDIX I.
198. Surāṣṭra... ...Kathiawad and other portions of northern-
most Gujarat.
199. Sumha ... ...Rājaśekhara mentions this as one of the
eastern countries. According to Kālidāsa's
descriptions, the country of Sumha is situ-
ated on the coast of the bay of Bengal
near Vaṅga on the Gangetic delta. He
also states that the river Kapiśa is to the
south of this country. (see Raghuvaṁśa
iv. 35–38). The river Kapiśa is, there-
fore, to be located in the land intermediate
between Vaṅga and Utkala on the eastern
coast. (see Kapiśa).
200. Sūrpāraka ...This is a country in South India according
to Rājaśekhara. This is identified with
S'opārā in the district of Thāṇā 37 miles
north of Bombay and 4 miles north-west
of Bassein.
201. Saumya ... ...One of the nine parts of the Bhāratavarṣa.
Saumya seems to be a country situated in
the north-west direction of India, if we
are to rely on the order of sequence as
given in the Purāṇas, while enumerating
the different parts constituting the Bhā-
ratavarṣa.
202. Haṁsamārga...This is also called as Krauñcarandhra or
Haṁsadvāra, in the Himālayas; it is
said to have been opened by Paraśurāma
with an arrow. This is identified with
the Niti pass, in the district of Kumaon,
connecting Tibet with India.
203. Harahūrava ...The country lying between the Indus and
the Jhelum, the Gandgarh mountain and
the salt range. (see Cunningham's map.
vi.). Rājaśekhara places this country in
the northern India.

APPENDIX I. 313
204. Harivarṣa ...This is the first Varṣa on the southern
side of the Mahāmeru. Niṣadha is said to
be the principal mountain of this Varṣa.
205. Hastināpura ...The capital of the Kurus, north-west of
Delhi. It was situated on the right bank
of the Ganges at a distance of 22 miles
north-west of Meerut.
206. Hiḍimbā... ...A river in the western India, according
to Rājaśekhara. This river may be iden-
tified with Chambal or Carmaṇvatī which
rises from the Vindhyas, flows through the
western India and meets with the Yamunā
near the Ekacakra which is adjacent to Eta-
wah. This Ekacakra, it may be remembered,
is situated near Hiḍimbāvana according to
the Mahābhārata. Since, this river flows
through the Hiḍimbā forest, it is not
unnatural that it should be called by the
name of Hiḍimbā. The river Hiḍimbā
may also be identified, as an alternative
measure, with the river Gambhīra which
is a tributary of the river Śiprā in Cen-
tral India.
207. Himavān ...The Himālayan range which is the prin-
cipal mountain of the Bhāratavarṣa.
208. Himālaya ...Same as Himavān.
209. Hiraṇmayavarṣa This is one of the seven Varṣas consti-
tuting the Jambūdvīpa or Asia. It is the
second Varṣa on the northern side to the
Mahāmeru. The Śveta range forms the
principal mountain of this Varṣa.
210. Hūṇa ... ...One of the countries in North India.
While describing the Digvijaya of Raghu,
Kālidāsa mentions the country of the
Hūṇas in the northern direction, and adds
that it can be reached from Persia by
crossing the river Vaṅkṣu (sic. Sindhu).
The country of the Hūṇas, under the cir-
cumstances, may be identified with the
country between the modern Waksh and
40

314 APPENDIX I.
Akṣu, the two tributaries of the Oxus.
This identification becomes all the more
certain when we consider that Kālidāsa
places the Kāmbojas in the widely dis-
tributed mountainous parts situated between
the Hūṇa country and the Himālayas.
The country near S'ākala or Sialkot in the
Punjab or Malwa cannot, however, re-
present the Hūṇa country of Rājaśekhara
because these places are mentioned by him
with different names. These places, more-
over, were acquired by the Hūṇa kings
Toramāna and Mihirakula after they
had invaded India, and thus cannot re-
present their original home or even earlier
settlements.
211. Hūhuka ... ...One of the countries in the northern India.
It may be identified with the northern
Kashmīr. Hiuen Thsang while entering
the valley of Kashmīr from the west,
reached a city which he calls Hu-se-kia-lo
or Huṣkara. In the Rājataraṅgiṇī Huṣ-
kapura is said to be near Varāha or Vārā-
hamūla. Huṣkara or Uskar still exists
as a village on the left or eastern bank of
the Behat. The country surrounding Huṣ-
kapura or Uskar may represent the Hū-
huka of Rājaśekhara, and presumably, this
may represent the country of Kashmir
which is otherwise omitted in the list of
North Indian countries given by Rājaśe-
khara on page 94.
212. Hemakūṭa ...This is a Varṣa Parvata, being the second
from the Mahāmeru on the southern side.
This is the principal mountain range of
the Kimpuruṣavarṣa, and is situated on
the northern side of the Himavān and the
Bhāratavarṣa. (see Kimpuruṣavarṣa).
