Our records refer to Puṇaka 1,000, Karahāṭaka 4,000, as viṣayas. Nasik, Karṇapurī (corresponding to Bijapur district) and Mahisha are also described by the same term. It is, therefore, fairly clear that a \*vishaya\* roughly corresponded to a modern district, usually consisting of about 2,000 villages and hamlets. - [Previous: c14.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.altekar-1934.c14.4) - [Next: c14.6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.altekar-1934.c14.6) - [Up: c14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.altekar-1934.c14) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.altekar-1934.c14.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.altekar-1934.c14.5) · Pramāṇa
