IBN BATUTA'S

TRAVELS IN BENGAL AND CHINA.

     

From Cambay they longing to the Pagan

went to KAwE, a place on a tidal gulf be- Raja Jalansi, and thence to KANDAHAR, a

     

Beiâna, " a great place," with fine markets, and of which one of the chief officers of state had been lately governor.

K6L, a fine city in a plain surrounded by mango or3hards

(Jalâli, the town relieved) Burjbfuah

Ab-i-Siyah

KANAUJ .

Hanaul, Wazirpfir Bajâlisah .

City of Maori, Marh

Alâpizr, ruled by an Abyssinian or Negro giant who could eat a whole sheep at once. A day's journey from this dwelt Katam the Pagan King of Jambil .

GALIÛR .

Parwân, Arnwari .

Kajarrd. Here there was a lake about a mile long surrounded by idol temples, and with buildings in the water occupied by long-haired Jogis

I believe no such name is now traceable. Biana, west of Agra, was a very important city and fortress in the middle ages, but is quite out of place here.

Koel, commonly now known as Aligarh, from the great fort in the vicinity taken by Lord Lake. Jalali still exists, 10 m. E. of Koel.

There is a village Birjpûr N.E. of Mainpiiri, on the line between Koel and Kanauj.

A Persian rendering of the name of Kali-Nadi (Black River), which enters the Ganges near Kanauj. Sharifuddin gives the same name in a Turkish version, Kara Su (H. de Timor Bec, iii, 121).

Well known.

Not traced. The last a very common name.

Must have been a place of some note as it gave a name to one of the gates of Dehli (iii, 149, and note, p. 461). I should suppose it must have been near the Jumna, Etdwa perhaps, or at Bateswar Ferry.

If the last was Etawa, Maori may be Umri near Bhind.

There is a place, Jaurasa Alapur, to the W.N.W. of Gwalior, where Sir Robert Napier gained a brilliant victory over the Gwalior insurgents in 1858, but it seems too much out of the line. The Pagan king is perhaps the Rajah of Dholpfir on the Chambal.

Gwalior.

The first may be Panwczri in the Hamirpiir Zillah, which would be in the line taken, if the next identification be correct.

Appears to be mentioned as Kajrdha by Rashid, quoted by Elliot (p. 37), who identifies both names with Kajrcci, on the banks of the Ken river in Bundelkhand, between Chattarpiir and Panna, which has ruins of great antiquity and interest. If so, the route followed must have been very devious, owing perhaps to the interposition of insurgent districts.
