two regions the inhabitants of which possibly possess separate names for one and the same geographical object. For instance, the Tibetans who accompanied us from the east called that lake Jim-tso or Jigen-soptse, whereas those who met us there from the west called it Perutse-tso. It is only the circumstance that the latter form is given by Littledale, though spelled Peroktse-tso, that has induced me to stick to this name in preference to the other.
Camp CXVIII was pitched in the vicinity of two sheets of water, little pools, forming the surviving relics of a lake. The place is called Harschu. Adjacent parts of the northern range are known as Tsemar and Jarak.
