RESEARCHES ON PTOLEMY’S GEOGRAPHY. (69 
aldendum mentions Pahang, while the synoptical map and the 
tables, which have been revised since publication in the 
R. A. S.J. 1897, are for a site in Pahang. 
Tharra, an inland town, is placed in Tringanu, but this 
arrangement depends on the original identification of Palanda 
near Kuala Kampar which has ‘been considered the less pro- 
bable one. 
Sabana was a mart in Selangor, and Cape Malen Kolon 
is Tanjong Gelang in Pahang. This name is connected with 
the name Malaya, which was imported into the peninsula by 
the early inhabitants of Southern India in their flight from the 
Aryans. 
The Attaba River i is the Tringanu River, and Koli was a 
town in Kelantan. 
The difficulties with which the author was sumonniled 
must have been immense, and definite conclusions as to» the 
identifications attempted here will perhaps always be doubtful. 
This section of the book will prcbably be more useful for the 
historical and philological research it contains than ~ for 
anything it proves. It must be remembered too that Ptolemy 
shortened the Peninsula considerably making the extreme 
promontories point East and West and that he did not know 
of land lying South of the Pahang River.
