³ The country called Mahârâshṭra by Hiuen Tsiang would, in my opinion, have been more correctly called Kuntala in Mahârâshṭra. To allow for the number of ninety-nine thousand villages, whether actual or traditional, which the Aihôḷe inscription of A. D. 613-14 allots to the three divisions of it, each called Mahârâshṭraka (see page 350 above), Mahârâshṭra proper must, I think, have extended up to the Narmadâ, and on the east and north-east far beyond Ajaṇṭâ.
