"Greek town." The Greeks, and the Western nations in general, were called in Sanskrit Yavana. The transition of y into j (phonetically speaking) has many analogies, as, Latin Johannes, Ital. Giovanni, Engl. John; Latin juvenis, ital. giovine, &c. &c. For the change of the syllables, "ava" into "ô," or "û," compare Dolabâri, Dolagiri, Gangôtri, &c. The denomination "Greek" probably refers to the Greek-Bactrian empire.

Kailas, or Kailâsa, also Kilas, a mountain chain in Tibet . . j7ji j Sanskr.

"Seat of the wedge." This name is derived by Lassen, Ind. Alt., Vol. I., p. 34, from kilo., wedge, and Asa, seat. Cunningham (Ladâk, p. 43) says: Kailas means crystalline, or icy, and is derived from k e 1 as, a crystal, which is itself a compound of k e, water, and las, to shine. But according to Wilson's Sanskrit Dictionary, las in the signification of to shine would require the prefix "ut."

Another name connected with the Kailas range is Tise, the denomination of its highest

peak.
