The most interesting of the predecessors to my Transhimalaya is, however,
the one introduced by Colonel GODWIN-AUSTEN in 1883. He says that the old
and new observations »have, when considered in conjunction with the ascertained
strike of the granitoid or gneissic rocks, led me to separate the great Central
Asian Chain into the following five principal divisions, with some minor subdivisions:
1) The main axis or Central Asian, Kuenlun. 2) Trans-Himalaya. 3) Himalaya.
4) Outer or Lower Himalaya. 5) Sub-Himalaya.» ¹
It is not quite clear where he places his Trans-Himalaya. But of the Shayok-
Kailas he says: »This subsidiary axis is well marked on the south of the Pang-
kong Lake north-west and south-east of Tanksé, running parallel to the Ladak
range . . . To the eastward from Sajam Peak, the north side of the Indus and
Gartangchu to the Kailas Peak, thence very probably north of the head-waters of
the Brahmaputra.»
At another place ² Godwin-Austen, dealing with the same subject, has also
published an illustrating map to his lecture (Pl. XXVI). On this map we read the
name Trans Himalaya at a place where a part of the actual Transhimalaya is in
reality situated. That is to say, Godwin-Austen's Trans-Himalaya, situated between
83° and 85° of longitude, and N.E. of the river, covers only a small part of my
Transhimalaya. The same map alludes to Saunders' Gangri by a dotted line, showing
that Godwin-Austen regards this range as problematic.
We have seen that Cunningham and Reclus tried to introduce the name Trans-
Himalaya by giving it to different northern Himalayan ranges. When it app-
ears a third time, under the strong authority of Godwin-Austen, it has been placed
in the only region of Tibet where one can speak at all of a Trans-Himalaya, namely
north of the great valley which, in almost the whole of its length, must be regarded
as the northern boundary of the Himalayan system. In this connection it is not
necessary to enter upon Godwin-Austen's views regarding the different ranges as
he has shown them by help of red lines. But if I understand his map rightly he
includes one or two ranges south of the Tsangpo in his Trans-Himalaya, a view
that diminishes the value of his use of the name.
In his text to this map Godwin-Austen discusses Saunders' different ranges.
Talking of the »high range north of the Manasarowar Lake», which from there is
»continued east as a range north of, and parallel with the Sangpo», he adds: »It is un-
