CAAGIU.

Polo says that Chinghiz-khan died from the shot of arrow received at the siege of a « castle » named « Caagiu ». But there are chronological difficulties.

Yule attempts to reconcile the difficulties in Polo's report by asserting that a confusion occured between Chinghiz and Mongka. Pelliot has objections to this.

• Calatuy » is a possible rendering of Caagiu, and it is equated with Ha-lao-t'u by Pauthier.

See p. 114-115.

a Caagiu » : according to Polo,

Chinghiz-khan died there. See CINGHIS, p. 328.

a Caagiu » : according to Polo, a

• castle » which was sieged and at which Chinghiz-khan died from an arrow wound. But this is doubtful and the name cannot be well accounted for. See CAAGIU, p. 114.

• Caalac » : var. in Rubrouck, for Qayali[q• See CAIDU, p. 126.

Cabadim : (king...) read « Bahadim ». See CURMOS, p. 578.

a Cacainfu » : other form of Cacanfu. See CACANFU, p. 115.

See CATORS, p. 232.

Caccabis Chukor : it is the « chakbr ». See CATORS, p. 230.

CACCIA MODUN.

Neither the name, nor the location has as yet been identified. Was probably the Ha-ch'a-mutun of YS, 100, 2a.

Peliiot's opinion is that Hach'a-mu-tun represents yagëamudun (=yagca-modun), « the Lone Tree ».

See p. 116-118.

• Caccia-modum » : Polo's recording of the Mongolian term yab 6a-modo.

See DRY (LONE) TREE, p. 629. « cachalot » : found in a French book in 1746, and in English in 1747. See CAPDOILLE, p. 159. cachalut » : mentioned first in 1670 as a word used in the region of Bayonne and Biarritz. See CAPDOILLE, p. 159. cachau : (Gascon) most probable etymology of « cachalot », with Catal. caxal.

See CAPDOILLE, p. 159.

« Cacianfu » : other form of Cacanfu.

See CACANFU, p. 115.

(( Cacianfu » : in the mss. corrected to « Cacionfu » by Pelliot.

See CACIONFU, p. 119.

(( Caciese » : this name, found in some mss. for the daughter of the King of « Mangi », seems to be an erroneous reduplication of « Cocacin ».

See COCACIN, p. 394. CACIONFU.

In the mss. only « Cacianfu ». Identified to Ho-chung-fu. « Caysam »? in the Catalan Map. See p. 119.
