NOTES
As regards the Balti duchy of Kha-pu-lu, the above text contains the names of two more chiefs, whose names
are also found in Cunningham's tables (p. 30). They are :—
Ya-ya-khan, identical with Cunningham's Yahia Khan, No. 66.
Ydab-lad-'A-li-khan, identical with Cunningham's Daolat-Ali Khan, No. 67.
The Balti duchy of Skat-rdo appears here under the government of 'A-mad-śa, Cunningham's Ahmed-Shah,
No. 8 (p. 35). The capture of a large portion of the Ladakhi army, which is here narrated as having taken
place in 1815 A.D., under Ahmad-Shāh, is stated by Vigne to belong to the reign of Ahmad-Shāh's pre-
decessor, viz. 'Ali Sher-Khān.
The names of the chiefs of Si-dkar, as given in the above text, cannot easily be reconciled with
Cunningham's list. The fault may be with the author of the present text, who may not have known the personal
names of the Si-dkar chiefs of those times. It is hardly possible to believe that A'zam Khān, who was a con-
temporary of king Bde-skyon-rnam-rgyal, should have been still alive in 1792 A.D. Possibly the Wazir Ma-ma
(= Muhammad) Sultan became chief in place of A'zam Khān. He is probably identical with Mohammed Khan,
No. 25 of Cunningham's list of Si-dkar chiefs (p. 34): see ante, p. 192.
A chief called Murad can only be traced in Cunningham's list of the chiefs of Roń-mulo. But Ahmad
Shāh's eldest son also was called Murad: see ante, p. 186.
I cannot venture to identify the new local names found in the above text; but see the map. It is evident
that Sa-spo-rtse is Sa-spo-la, Gar-dag-śa or Skar-stag-śa is Mkhar-stag-śa, Skye-ris is Kye-ris, Bzań-dkar is
Zańa-dkar.
