EPIGRAPHIA INDICA.
(VOL. XIII.
Bukkarāya I of Vijayanagara dated in śālivāhana-saka 1276 (current), with details falling in A.D. 1354."
As regards the places mentioned in this record, Vaula, the village which was granted, is described as being in S&sati. This last-mentioned is the present Sashți, Salsette, the island which forms the taluka of which the head-quarters station is at Thana : its name is found as Shatshashti in the Bhāndap plates of A.D. 1026 (see Vol. XII above, p. 257). Vaula still exista, and is shown in the Indian Atlas sheet 25, N.E. (1905), in lat. 19° 16', long. 73° 1', abont five milos north-by-west from Thāna. The village of the god Kaměsvara, on the cast, is plainly the “Kavesvar" of the map, about a mile east-south-east from Vaula. The Sambhavaja river, on the north, must be the lower part of the Ulbās river, which there develops into the Bassein Creek. The map does not show any names answering to Sitalos vara, on the south of Vaula, and Sambhavaji, the hamlet of the god Kopēśvara, on the west.
