Ptolemy mentions among Indian tribes the Gonds as Kan- 
daloi (VII, 1,66).' Strabo speaks of the country Gandaris 
or Gandarltis ^ in the north-west of India, while Ptolemy 
distinguishes (VI, 12, 4) between the Kandaroi in Sogdiana 
* Koi-jdti is a term generally given to the Koi tribe. In the July number, 
1837, of the Madras Journal of Literature and Science, the Kev. William 
Taylor remarks as follows on page 17 : "In the title to Mr. Stevenson's 
paper on their customs, they (the Khoonds) are styled r'^Jtw Codulu and ia 
Dr. Maxwell's list Khoi-Jdti.''' 
It is perhaps not quite out of place to mention among the tribal names 
also the Gandhdra, Gdndhdra or Gandhdri, who appear in the Behistun 
inscription among the subjects of Darius Hystaspes as Ganddra. If this is 
the case, the name of the Queen Gdndhdri would find a place among the 
female names connected with the Gaudians. Some connect the name of 
Kandahar with the Gandharas, while others derive the name of the town 
Kandahar from Alexander the Great. 
I omit to include above in the text the names of the other sons of 
Dhrtarastra : Kundabhedin, Kundadhara, Kundaka, KundaSayin and 
Kundodara.
