and Mawaralnara. West of the range Sacritma is the country Sarcil with the places; Sarcil, Serpanil, Ciaciunor, Chaman and other names taken from Goës, whilst his Iaconich is east of the same range. Between Raia Tibbon and the southern end of Sacritma M., he has a continuous range.

W. of the latter, is Gecialath mons from which one of the feeders of the Ganges takes its rise. At the source of the western - most feeder, is Chaparangute, and west of it a mighty range of mountains, partly called Tåpûli montes. South of the latter, is Iaconich, and south of this, Cascar and Egriar.

From the middle of the 17th century, is DE WITT'S map showing, to the north of Cassimere, Rahia Tibbon, the latter being separated from the sources of the Amu-daria by a range which continues far to the N. N. E. , and is placed east of Iaconich, Cascar and Egriar and south of Thibeti Reg.

CORONELLI, 1695, enters the mountains on his map in the form of dotted lines, the one north of India being Monti Cocas, or Caucasus and having to its north, Thibet, Vachun and Turquestan. North of Thibet is a nameless range, being the southern boundary of Regno di Cascar, where Iaconich is found S. S. W. of the town, Cascar.
