Springs are immediately south of the village, welling up in 

 small tanks in pagoda buildings on each side of the 

 stream ; a large volume of water is thrown out and a 

 stream of air-bubbles is always rising to the surface. The 

 water is warm, very clear, and gives a pale-bluish tinge to 

 litmus. — W. King.

 Springs are about 1£ miles southward from Calwa, a 

 large and old village in Kurnool district. The first 

 spring has a temperature of 89° Fahr., as has the second 

 also ; while the third, which is half a mile further up, 

 is 90°. There is a temple dedicated to Iswara at the 

 springs which gush from several fissures in the rocks into 

 a handsome stone tank, about nine paces square. The water 

 is beautifully transparent, tasteless, and odourless. The 

 stream formed by the springs runs along the glen, from 

 which a cahva or aqueduct (hence the name of the village) 

 conveys the water to the lands around the village. Thick 

 beds of calcareous tufa occur round the springs. — Newhold, 

 Madras Jour. Lit. and Sci., XV, 160. These springs are 

 on the east and west line of faults which pass through 

 Gunnygull hill.— W. King, G. S. I., MSS.

Several springs, about 1 mile to the east of the village, in a 

 transverse jungly valley. The water silicifies, is tasteless, 

 inodorous, slightly alkaline, with carbonate of lime and 

 iron. — Newhold, Jour. Asiat. Soc, Bengal, XIII, 1313. 

 Lanjabanda is in Kurnool district, not in the Dekkan, as 

 stated by Schlagintweit, list No. 44. In Macpherson's list 

 a typographical error has made this name Sunjabanda. 



... Lat. 15° 29'; Long, 78° 41'; Elev. app. 800; Temp. 88-7°. 

 The springs rise on the western side of the Nulla Mullay 

 hills, which separate the districts of Kurnool and
