Firishta gives the name of the fort as ‘Gundaba.’ Briggs' Trans., Vol. I, p. 74. Bühler identified it with Kanthkot in East Cutch; Col. Watson preferred Gāndhvi on “Kathiavādā coast a few miles N.E. of Miāni” while Dr. Weil favoured Gandhār in Broach, in the mouth of the Dhādhar river; Elliot preferred Khandadār at the N.W. angle of Kathiawar. None of these suggestions are free from difficulties. See \*BG\*, Vol. I, Part I, p. 167, fn. 4. \*IA\*, Vol. VI, pp. 185-86. But I prefer Bühler's identification, see \*DHNI\*, Vol. II, p. 938 and fn. 6. - [Previous: v2.c31.187](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31.187) - [Next: v2.c31.189](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31.189) - [Up: v2.c31](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31.188](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31.188) · Pramāṇa
