EPIGRAPHIA INDICA.
[VOL. XIX.
("Meerni” on the Indian Atlas sheet 40) in lat. 16° 48' and long. 74° 12'. On the town of Kapdi see Ind. Ant., Vol. XXIX, p. 280 and on the Kandi province ibid., Vols. XIV, p. 16, XVI, p. 20, XIX, p. 244, and XXIX p. 278. Torambage may possibly be Tarambe, in the Kolhapur State, near Gârgoti. Baleyavattans seems to be Baļiapaštam or Valapattam, situate in the Chirakkal taluka of Malabar District, in lat. 11° 55' and long. 75° 22'. This town is mentioned in Ptolemy's Geography, VII. i. $ 6, as Badalmatva in some editions -wrongly spelt Baltimatva), and is the lalaitatua of the Periplus (cf. McCrindle, Ancient India as doscribed by Ptolemy, p. 45, and Commerce and Navigation of the Erythrean Sea, pp. 127, 129; Lassen, Alterthümer, III, pp. 181, 183); and probably Kern is right in identifying Balaipatna with the Baladeva-pattana of the Brihat-sa mhita, xiv. 16.
