the famous conqueror of Aba. If my learned friend should be right, the last lines of the genealogical Table published above, p. 83, would of course have to be slightly altered. Mr. Ojha agrees with me in considering Tihunáka (Tihuņa) to be a younger brother of Tējasimha, but from his point of view places both, together with Tôjasimha's son Kanhadadêva, under Lantiga (Landha, Lûqiga, Lumbha).

The other members of the family are eulogized in general terms.

The seven tirtha or kaldtrae are frequently mentioned, but I have not yet found the names of the seven places
