Beg's house I had seen the ruins of a large village, which
evidently had been abandoned recently. The Beg told me
their history substantially as Stein has recorded it. For-
merly, the villages of Dumuka and Ponak were located eight
miles north of the present sites. About 1834, the water sup-
ply began to run short, being lost in the sandy jungle above
the village. It diminished so greatly that for seven years no
water reached the canals during winter. The people were
obliged to dig wells. Finally, the scarcity of water became
such that distress ensued from the failure of crops. The vil-
lagers decided to abandon houses, fields, fruit trees, vine-
yards, and everything, and move eight miles upstream to
a new site. The disadvantages of poorer, sandier soil and
of the loss of the labor of years were more than compen-

where the water from the mountains reappears after its
underground course through the piedmont gravel. Each
proprietor was given the same amount of land as formerly
in a corresponding location, and with it a proportional
quantity of water. Chira and Gulakhma also suffered at
this time, though much less. Nearly eighty families moved
up to Ekken, a very sandy site close to the springs of another
stream. There can be no doubt of the authenticity of this
account, for Ismail Beg, the relater, heard it from his father,
who was among those who moved; and some of the old
people of Dumuka still remember the event. Since the
occupation of the new site, no special difficulty as to the
water supply has been experienced. Indeed, between 1893
and 1900, it actually increased. There was so much sur-
plus water that the hamlet of Malakalagan was founded by
