the Princes of that tribe used to hold a Nüchen patent. A solu-

DEATH OF CHINGIZ KHAN.
" Gaubil's statement that he was wounded in 1212 by a stray
arrow, which compelled him to raise the siege of Ta-t'ung Fu, is
exactly borne out by the Yüan Shi, which adds that in the
seventh moon (August) of 1227 (shortly after the surrender of
the Tangut King) the conqueror died at the travelling-palace of
Ha-la T'u on the Sa-li stream at the age of sixty-six (sixty-five
by our reckoning). As less than a month before he was present
at Ts'ing-shui (lat. 342°, long. 1o62°), and was even on his dying
bed, giving instructions how to meet the Nüchên army at T'ung-
kwan (lat. 34.2°, long. II04°), we may assume that the place of
his death was on the Upper Wei River near the frontiers joining
the modern Kan Suh and Shen Si provinces. It is true the Sa-
li River (not stream) is thrice mentioned, and also the Sa-16-chu
River, both in Mongolia ; on the other hand, the Sa-li Ouigours
are frequently mentioned as living in West Kan Suh ; so that we
may take it the word Sali or Sari was a not uncommon Turkish
word. Palladius' identification of K'i-lien with ' Kerulen ' I am
afraid cannot be entertained.. The former word frequently occurs
in the second century B.C., and is stated to be a second Hiung-nu
(Turkish) word for ` sky ' or ' heaven.' At or about that date
the Kerulen was known to the Chinese as the Lu-kü River, and
the geographies of the present dynasty clearly identify it as such
The T'ien-Shan are sometimes called the K'i-lien Shan, and the
word K'i-lien is otherwise well established along the line of the
Great Wall." (E. H. PARKER, Asiatic Quart. Rev., Jan., 1904,
pp. 136-7.)
Prof. Pelliot informs me that in No. 3 (Sept., 1918) of Vol. III
of Chinese Social and Political Science Review there is an article
on the Discovery of and Investigation concerning the Tomb of
Gengis Khan. I have not seen it.

TAILGAN.
" The tázilgan, or autumn meeting of the Mongols, is probably
the t'li-lin, or autumn meeting, of the ancient Hiung-nu described
