NOTES

Kha-pu-lu stretches 25 miles down the Shayok (Śâ-gyog) river, beyond Daho, the whole length of the
chiefdom being 67 miles. As the mean breadth is about 30 miles, the area will be 2,010 square miles. The
mean height of the villages is about 9,000 feet. (Cunningham, p. 28.)

As stated by Cunningham (p. 28), the above genealogical tree opens with Sultan-Sikandar, or Alexander the
Great, whose successors were Abraham and Isaac. Cunningham believed that after Sultan-Yagu, the thirty-ninth
name, the list was tolerably correct, because the name Yagu has descended to the present day as a title in the
family, the present chief (in 1846) being styled Sultan-Yagu-Daolut-Ali-Khan. Of course, the Kha-pu-lu chiefs
may have had an ancestor called Yagu ; but Cunningham should not have made 1410 A.D. his probable date. He
places him in the beginning of the fifteenth century, because he wants him to be a contemporary of the Kashmir
king, Sikander-Butshikan, the fanatic Musalman. But, in order to place him there, he finds it necessary to
furnish each one of the Kha-pu-lu chiefs with an average reign of only fifteen years. This is altogether too short.
Experience has shown me that about thirty years is the average length of each reign in Tibet. It will be safest,
