Section 1 . List of ancient rajas procured in the Sunda district. 



Certain kings of Mdgadha. The Cadamfia dynasty. Trinetra 

 Codamba-rayen was the first of them, who ruled forty-five years. His 

 son Mddhu reigned fifty years : some other successions down to May- 

 ura verma. His son was Trinetra Cadamban. The successions are 

 continued down to an invasion by a Concana king, of the Parpara dy. 

 nasty. Kings of this race follow, twenty-one in number. Vira Cama~ 

 deva-rayen conquered the last of that dynasty. The Ballala dynasty. 

 Their capital was Dwdra Samudram. They are the Oyisalas; nine 

 in number. Hari-hara ray en overcame them j and ruled in Vidyana- 

 garam. The line of the Rayers is referred to, as having been before 

 transmitted. Their becoming enfeebled, and ruling at Annacondai, is 

 simply mentioned. The rule of some Nayaks or local chiefs, as sup- 

 posed in the S mda district, is stated. The Chola dynasty: some of 

 the names are the same as in other lists, others are different ; but we 

 know that these kings had two or three titular names. A reference to 

 Ballalas, who ruled in distant, and distinct, places ; apparently without 

 successor: one at Trinomali. A list of Andhra kings; town not speci- 

 fied. Loose mention of Warankal, and other, rulers. There is then a re- 

 ference back to the Saovirashta-desam, and other countries, unconnect- 

 ed in form. Moll'i raja, is said to have ruled at BaUaki-patnam in the 

 Bengal country ; and Bhoja raja is said to have been his son. One or 

 two Udriya kings are mentioned ; and then a leap is made down to 

 Madura: the name of Sundara-Pandiyan, occurs, with a transit imme- 

 diately afterwards to the Kerala raja. After other scattered notices of 

 individuals, a return is made northwards to Ougein, and VicramddUya, 

 Then a reference to Delhi. A return back to Madura, and to Kuna 

 Pandiyan. 



Kote. — The only value of this paper is with reference to the Cadam* 

 ha line, and succeeding races down to the conquest by Hari-hara rayer. 

 All the rest is incoherent; both as to times and places, and mere names, 

 such as a person might casually hear mentioned in conversation, as of 

 those once ruling in India. There are no dates either of the Call Fuga, 

 or any other era, The ink and paper are in sufficiently good preservati- 

 on to allow of reference to the first part, many years hence ; if need be. 



Section 2. Account of wild tribes in Sunda and Canara* 

 Kothing answering to this heading appears; and there are marks in 

 the book of several sheets having been torn out, or otherwise lost. 



Sec Hon 3. Account of the Ctramaru, in the Sunda country.
