other at their extremities. — Though it is impossible to give any definite idea of
the detailed orography of the Himalayas it is possible to divide the mountains into
orographical regions sufficiently distinct from each other, even if their exact
boundaries are somewhat indefinite. The innermost of these is the upland of
Tibet, characterised by great elevation and a dry climate . . . .³ The orographical
region, which in fact is identical with the Transhimalaya, is therefore, according to
Oldham, a very high and dry upland, and hardly anything else could be said of it

of speculative exploration on the Transhimalaya. To give an idea of his position and
views it is sufficient to refer to two different papers of his, published in 1870 and
1877 resp. In the first² he represents on his maps the great peaks »as a culminat-

forms the water-parting between the basins of the Ganges and Sanpu-Bramaputra.«
Within this double range of the Himalaya he distinguishes the following parts:
