Addendum with Reference to the First Note at Page 317. 
Hiouen-Thsang speaks of a kingdom whose name M. Julien trans- 
literates, from the Chinese, into Tchi-Tci-t' o, and then into Tchi-tchi-to. 
On the former he remarks : “ Le second signe se prononce ordinaire- 
ment tchi. Je le trouve paur lei dans Avalokitefvara.” At first he 
gives Chikdha, with an expression of doubt, as the Sanskrit word 
which it is designed to represent ; and he identifies it, absolutely, 
with Chitor. But Hiouen-Thsang reached Tchi-tchi-to after travel- 
ling about. a thousand lis N. E. from Ujjayini ; and neither would 
the direction nor would the distance take him to Chitor. Finally, 
without committing himself about the word, M. Julien concludes, 
that the place intended is Jajhaoti, — a modern corruption of nobody 
knows what. 
All this is most unsatisfactory. Hiouen-Thsang, as his itinerary 
has come down to us, not unfrequently mistakes, alike in respect of 
names, hearings, and distances. In fact, he opens, with all fairness, 
a wide door for speculation. 
Chedi, we have no ground to question, was a flourishing kingdom 
in the seventh century ; and its extent northerly, from its capital, 
near Jubulpoor, may have been considerable. The Chinese pilgrim 
does not tell us, as to Tchi-tchi-to, that the capital of that kingdom 
was visited by him.
