The ariyas are divided into nine groups, the first of which is formed by the khettâriya, and is in gåthâ form. It is as follows:
Rayagiha Magaha, Champå Amga taha, Tâmalitti Vamga ya Kamchanapuram Kalimga, Banarasi (!) chêva Kâsî ya ||
[398] Siêya Kôsala, Gayapuram cha Kuru, Sôriyam Kusaṭṭhâ (dda B, ttà) ya Kampillam Pamchâlâ, Ahichhattâ Jamgala chêva ||

Sêyaviyâ vi ya nayart Kêaï-addham cha âriyam bhaniyam | pachch' (pachchh' C, ichch B, etth' Datra) uppatti jinupam chakkipam Rama-Kanhaṇam |
These names represent a later stage than the 13 names in añga 5 (p. 304), but date back in all probability to a remote period. Pâtaliputra is omitted here but found in anga 11 (p. 337, 338). [399] It appears to be an old reminiscence (or perhaps is a trace of the influence of the Ramayana) that one half of Kekaya is called Aryan. The other half is concealed under the name of the Kakvêya (C, where anga 10 has Kêkaya), cited among the Milakkhas. Bânárast is modern cf. Bhag. 2, 222 - but is found in this form also in anga 5.
The second group of the ariyas, the jati-ariya, deserves alsc to be noted here: sê kim tam jatiariya ? chhavviha pannattâ, tam, Ambattha ya Kalimda Vidêha Vêdamâiya (gaiya BC) Hariya Vamchunâ (Chamch° C) chêva chha êya ibbhâ jâtito, sê jâtiâriya. What is the meaning of the last three names ?
The sixth group of the ariyas is formed by the bhasariya. We find here again the enumeration of the 18 manners of writing, which we met with (p. 280) in auga 4, 18, where, however, the form in which they were cited is not so correct as here. The names in this very interesting passage are as follows (together with the variants from ABC), sê kim tam bhâsâriya? je nam addha-Magahâê bhâsâê bhûsemti, jattha ya pam bambhi livi ("the sacred

Instead of the second Vachchha Nêmichandra has the correct reading Machchha; instead of Varana he reads Varuna and explains as follows:- Varuno nagaram Aohohha désah, anyê tu Varane. Achchhapur! 'ty Ahub; for No. 23 he has: Masapuri Vatti (Vaddha C), and in the schol:: Varttô désab, anyê tu.. Vadha iti; at the end: jatth' uppatti.
