¹ According to the Mahābhārata (Smith's History, page 348), it would seem to have occupied the Lower Doab. Manu (II. 19) places it near Kanauj. Wilson will have it extending north and west from Delhi from the foot of the Himālaya to the Chambal and separated by the Ganges into Northern and Southern Pāñchāla. Cunningham considers North Pāñchāla to be Rohilkhand with the capital city Ahi-chhatra represented by the ruins near Rāmnagar, and the South Pāñchāla to be the Gangetic Doab with the capital city Kāmpilya between Budāun and Farrukhābad.
