¹ [Kumhēr (Kombhere) is the headquarters of a tahsil in Bharatpur (Bhurtpore) State, Rājputāna, about eleven miles north-west of Bharatpur. The town was founded by one Kumbha, a Jāt; and the palace and fort were built by Mahārāja Badan Singh about 1724. Khandē Rāo Holkar’s cenotaph, which was erected by his widow, Ahalya Bāi, at the village of Gangarsoli, three miles to the north of Kumhēr, is still maintained by the Indore State. (I.G. (1907), xvi. 22.)]
