Generally, when caravans passed it, the merchants were robbed, and he exacted from them excessive dues. But since Aurangzeb came to the throne he cut off his head, and those of a large number of his subjects. They have set up towers near the town on the highroad, and these towers are pierced all round by several windows, where they have placed in each one the head of a man at every two feet. On my last journey, in 1665, it was not long since this execution had taken place when I passed by Kālābāgh; for all the heads were still entire, and gave out an unpleasant odour. From Callabas to Akmate (Akai?) . 2 coss. „ Akmate to Collasar (Kolāras) . 9 „
