1 In other authors the conquest of Aderbijän is attributed to Müghireh 0 yx&e. The fact is that Mugbireh

pression of the author hereafter: :p 0p9 (c JD LS .) Cols n Î shall give thee back these countries» 
may suggest such an idea. Add. N. Consult however the following note 4. 
2 We here omit some lines which regard the etÿmology of the word ob! and the extent of the 
province so called. We have had occasion to bring a part of this quotation before our readers, in Remark 14. 
to Part I. of the Derbend-nameh. 
3 This name we find written both ways in our MS. $s and ae The last is preferable.
