"The white stones." This name is given to the capital of the island of Râmri, on account of the number of beautiful white pebbles which cover the beach in its vicinity. It is derived from K h y û k, white, and P h y n, stone. Communicated by Colonel Phayre.

L a b c h a, a mountain in Spiti, Lat. 32°, Long. 78°    217a' a lab-tse. Tib.

"A heap." L ab c h a, or L a p c h a, is a name given to the stone-heaps erected by the natives, on various occasions, for religious purposes, in large numbers. all over Tibet. Conspicuous points, particularly summits of mountains are selected with predilection, and generally poles with rags or pieces of cloth with prints on them are fixed in the Labchas. These flags, which are believed to keep off the evil spirits, are called Dérchoks.

The word Labcha is not met with in classical Tibetan literature, and presents itself, as I think after a careful examination of all circumstances, as a modification of the original word L abts e, a heap, which, however, still occurs in compound geographical names, as in Labtse Nagu and Labtse Chu, in Gnari Khôrsum.

"The southern province" (referring to Ladak as to the northern). Lilo, the south; yul, land, country.

Another name for Landl, which is chiefly used by the Ladakis, is Kai. chan; its component parts, dkar, white; chan, full, refer to the numerous glaciers .and snow-fields.

The Lah6lis themselves call this province Sfingla.

L a h ô r, in the Panjab, Lat. 31°, Long. 74°     j .sei Hind.

"Lava's town." The native information which I obtained, as well as the general opinion of European philologists, connects this name with Lava, either as son of Rama, or as king of Kashmir. a) in As. Res., Vol. IX., p. 53; b) in As. Res., Vol. XV., p. 16. The ancient form (in Lassen) is: Lohara.
