On the other hand, M. Sylvain Lévi’s identification of Mevilimbaṅgam, mentioned in Rājendra Cola’s inscription, with Kāma-laṅkā³ of Hiuen Tsang, differentiates the latter from Leṅkasuka, mentioned separately as Ilaṅgāśogam in the same inscription. This would support Cœdès’ view. Thus, while it is difficult to identify definitely Lang-kia-su with Ling-ya-sseu-kia, the former may be placed in the Isthmus of Ligor.
