has no Hor or Khor Range in his text or on his hand-drawn map (1821) and great
map (1836).

Klaproth's third Tibetan range is the same which is called Zzang by Hum-
boldt and Dzang by Ritter and corresponds to our Transhimalaya. Klaproth may
be said to make three ranges start from the Kailas, namely the Kara-korum, the
Zzang and the range south of the Tsangpo. Of these only the two first are to be
found in Humboldt's system, whereas the third is not mentioned. The three ranges
he makes originate from the Kailas are: I, Kara-korum, II, Hor or Khor, and III,
Zzang. Of the Hor Range Humboldt says that its north-western end joins the Kwen-
lun, while its eastern part stretches towards Tengri-nor. Now it is difficult to see
how the range of Hor can start from the Kailas and, at the same time, touch with
its extreme ends the Kwen-lun and the Tengri-nor. On the little map, Chaînes
de montagnes et volcans de l'Asie-Centrale, which Humboldt published in his Frag-
mens Asiatiques, 1831, there is also nearly the whole breadth of Tibet between the
Hor Range and Kailas. On this map, Pl. VIII, only two ranges can be said to take
their beginning from the Kailas, the Karakorum Padichah to the N.W., and the Dzang
to the east. He has also indicated at least a part of Klaproth's range south of the
Tsangpo. But the Hor Range belongs to quite a different part of Tibet and has
nothing whatever to do with the Kailas. In this case Klaproth is much more correct
than Humboldt.

Only one year later, or 1832, appeared Grimm's map illustrating Ritter's
geography, and in 1833 Ritter's own description of the Tibetan orography. In both
cases Humboldt's interpretation has been very carefully followed. Ritter has the
same three ranges, Kara-korum, Hor and Dzang, starting from the Kailas.

On GRIMM's map,¹ Pl. XII, the principal ranges have got very much the same
situation and configuration as on Humboldt's sketch, Pl. VIII. Only the Kwen-lun is
more complicated. The Hor or Khor Range crosses Tibet diagonally from the Kwen-
lun in the neighbourhood of Keriya to the region north of Tengri-nor. The Kailas
is shown as a range situated between the two Indus branches. Its eastern continuation
is called Gang-tis-ri, from which the Kara-korum starts to the N.W.

The eastern continuation of the Gang-tis-ri is a tremendous range slowly di-
verging from the Tsangpo valley, and bearing the following names: Tibetisches Ge-
birg Gang-dis-ri, Berg Tungdzei, Doosokbu Berg, Tomba-la, Nian-tsin-tang-la Gang-
ri, Ga-tsian, Gebirg Samtan-gandza and Dzang Gebirg. The principal names are
Gang-dis-ri and Dzang. The hydrography is taken from d'Anville's map. The
situation of the sources of d'Anville's rivers decides the general direction of the great
range. Only two of the northern tributaries to the Tsangpo, namely the Nauk-
dzangbo and the Dzaka-dzangbo-tschu, which we remember from d'Anville, pierce
