I have not found the epithet in juxtaposition with the 
name of Agra in the histories. 
Whyts ‘Abode of Victory,’ is found on Aurangzeb’s coins 
of Ujjain about 1073 A.H. Khafi Khan has a statement on 
the subject which leaves little room for doubt as to the origin 
of the epithet. He tells us that soon after the defeat of 
Dara’s generals, Jaswant Singh and Qasim Khan, at Dharmat- 
pur (seven koss from Ujjain), Aurangzeb bestowed upon 
“ Khwaja Kalan Khwafi—the author’s uncle—the substantive 
appointment of Diwan of Ujjain, to which he now gave the 
name of Daru-l-Fath, and the acting charge of the Subadari 
jof the province of Malwa] on behalf (or in place) of the 
Prince [Murad Bakhsh].” ’

Manucci also informs us that ‘‘ Aurangzeb gave orders to 
put up on the site [of the battle near Ujjain] a sarae and 
lant a garden, calling it Fatehpur (Fathpur)—that is to say, 
‘ Filled with victory.’”’ Mr. Irvine suggests that ‘ this may be 
identical with the Fathabad, twelve miles south-west of Ujjain 
(Thornton, ‘ Gazetteer,’ 315).”" ‘Storia do Mogor,’ Trans. I. 260 
and note. See also Sarkar, ‘ India of Aurangzeb,’ p. exiii, and 
Tod, ‘ Rajasthan,’ Reprint 1898, pp. 874, 1369. 
Similarly, another town and sarai called Fathabad was 
founded by the same Emperor on the site of the battle of 
Samiighar near Agra, “in commemoration of the victory 
obtained by him over his brother Dara Shikoh.” This Fatha- 
bad is also known by the name of Zafarnagar. Elliot, ‘ Supple- 
mental Glossary,’ ed. Beames, IT, 387. 
Sleijts ‘Seat of sovereignty or royalty, is a very old 
epithet of Kabul, as will be seen from the references given in 
another part of this paper. Aurangzeb, however, was the 
frst to associate it with the name of the chief town of 
Afghanistan on the coins. 
SiJists and also the double epithet ,4> Sli'o figure 
on the coins of Humayun and Akbar which issued from Dehli. 
heard it, he immediately inquired into the case and gave satisfaction to 
the complainant.” (Elliot and Dowson, IIT. 591).
