Place-Names in the Hikayat Pasai, 



By E. 0. AYixstedt. 



For Journal No. 66 Mr. Mead romanized the Hikayat Bajfi- 

 Raja Pasai. An otherwise excellent version, it is defaced by mis- 

 spellings of place-names on pp. 50 and 54-55. 



The second list on p. 54 should run: — 



1. Xegeri Tambelan. 2. Xegeri Siantan. 5. Xegeri Subi. 

 10. Xegeri Pemanggil. 10b. Negeri Karimata. 11. Xegeri 

 Belitong. 15. Xegeri Bentan. 16. Xegeri Bulang. 18. Xegeri 

 Mampaiva. 19. Xegeri Sukadana. 20. Xegeri Kota Vfaringin. 

 23. Xegeri Kutai. 



I cannot identify Berumak or as it should perhaps read Be- 

 romok. 



In the second list on p. 55, the foil, emendations should be 

 made : — ■ ' 



3. Xegeri Sumbawa. 4. Xegeri Sile parang. 5. Xegeri 

 Larantoka. 8. Xegeri Belambangan. 



The original MS. contains two errors; viz. 



(a) 10. Xegeri Pemanggilan Karimata. 



(b) 6. Xegeri Karantoka. 



Most of the Sumatran place-names on p. 51 do not appear on 

 modern maps. Probably they were very small places and have dis- 

 appeared. The site of Samudera is discussed in Journal 14.
