⁴⁸ Because of the varied spellings of this name in the Persian texts (Ferishta, I, 181; T.A., I, 317; *Makhzan*, 56 (a)) Sir Wolseley Haig, (C.H.I., III, 237), has got it wrong as Phāphāmau. This is not the insignificant village of Phāphāmau near Allahabad but Behavand or Bandhu, which had a strong fort Bandūgarh, Lat. 23° 27′ N., Long. 81° 3′ E. During a later campaign our chroniclers do write the correct name of Bandu or Bandūgarh, about 90 miles S.S.E. from Panna, commonly referred to by our historians, and 60 miles South of Rewa. Also *I.G.*, VI, 358-59; Ranking, I, 417 and n. 7. Rennel's map in *Memoir of a Map of Hindostan*.
