13. Jangapore, 11 the chief city so called; it lieth upon the River 
Haul , one of those five rivers which water Peniab.” (?) De Lact has 
‘Jengaporor Jenupar,’ between Lahore and Agra. 14. Jenba , east of 
Peniab, Cliamba. 15. Delleef Dihli. 16. Bando ; £ it confineth Agra 
to the west.’ This is Bandhu, or Bandhugarh, south-east of Agrah. 
17. -Malum; 18. Chitor; 19. Gujarat; 20. Chandis, Ivhandesh; 21. 
Berar, with the chief city Map ore ;f 22. Narwar; 23. Gwaliar ; 24. 
Agra ; 25. Samhal, Sambhal, or Muradabad District. 26. “ Bakar , the 
chief city called Bikaneer, it lyeth on the west side of the River Ganges-.” 
The whole remark seems to be erroneous. 27. Nagracot , Nagarkot or 
Kangrah. 28. iSiba, “ the chief city is called Hardware. J” 29. Makares , 
the principal cities are called JDekalee and Burhola .” Terry means the 
Gakk’har District, the chief cities of which were Dangali and Pharvvalah ; vide 
Ain translation, p. 621. Terry also remarks that the Caucasus (Hima¬ 
laya) divides Kakares from Tartaria, which accounts for its northern position 
on Blaev’s map. 30. Gor, “ the chief city so called ; it is full of mountains ; 
the River Sersily, a tributary unto Ganges , has its beginning in it.” 
Vide 32. 
31. Bitan , “ the chief city so called ; the River Canda waters it, and 
falls into the Ganges in the confines thereof.” This is Paithan, the form 
used by Abulfazl for Pathan, or Pathankot. Terry evidently means the 
whole hill tract of the Sirmur range, as far as the Alaknanda. It is, 
however, possible that he meant the Markanda ; but this river does not 
flow into the Ganges. The error in the position of Pitan is remarkable, 
as Terry, DeLaet, and Blaev give Temmery (a Dutch spelling for Dhameri, 
the old name of Nurpur, near Pathankot) between the Ravi and Nagarkot 
(Kangrah). 
32. Kanduana , “ the chief city is called Karhakatenka; the River 
Sersily parts it from Pitan. This and Gor are the north-east bounds of this 
Monarchy.” There can be no doubt that Kanduana is Gondwanali (Central 
Provinces), of which the capital is Garlia-Katanga (Jabalpur) ; vide Ain 
translation, p. 367. If Gor is the north-east boundary of the empire, it is 
the Gaur of Silliat, mentioned above, or the Garo Hills. Sersily is a misprint 
for Sersity, the Saraswati, which after the Jamuna is the principal (legendary) 
* « Which signifies an Heart, and is seated in the heart of the Mogul’s territories.” 
Terry. This unfortunate etymology shews however that Terry knew some Persian, 
because he cleverly disposes of the final yd. Similarly, he derives « Khusrau,’ from 
and and ‘ Sultan Khurram’ from karam, liberality! 
f Shahpur, built by Sultan Murad, Akbar’s son, six lcos south of Balapur, now in 
ruins.

do not know whether the country near Haridwar was over called Siba. 
a parganah of the Hisat Jalandhar 1 Juab is called Sibali.
