Jang by the Mughals, and Dae-liu in the language of Khitae—that is, by the Chinese. Consequently, from these various statements, Ningaish or Tingnash is the ^Cara and Chaghan Jang and the Gandhar of the Mughals, which constitute the Manzi and Dae-liu of the Chinese, the Maha-Chin of the Hindus, and Kandhar of the Musalmans of Turkistan and Ma-wara-un-Nahr. I now return, after this necessary digression, to the request of the Ko-yang, Mukali, to enter this territory of whatever it may be. His request was complied with, and he entered that territory with his forces, plundered it, and obtained what his troops were in want of. I notice, in Elliot, vol. i, page 63, that “Waihind, capital of Kandahar, west of the Sind” is said to be called “Karajang” by the “Moghals.” This is a little out of the way, and must be an error certainly. This army under Kubilae and Mukali was “to enter Khitae [which nearly all historians say was finally subdued in Uktae’s reign, and that the Altan Khan disappeared or hung himself. See note at page 1139], Kara-Jang, Tibbat—doubtful: the word is written—and Tingkut, Solika or Sulika Kolt, and parts of Hind which adjoin Chin and Maha-Chin.”
