⁶ The names given in the Pāli texts (DPPN, II. 721) are Paṇḍava, Gijjhakūṭa, Vebhāra, Isigili and Vepulla (or Vaṅkaka). The Pāli evidence may suggest that *Vipula* in the *Mbh.* verse is a name, and not an epithet. In that case Dr. J. Wenger suggests *Chaityakapañchakāḥ* (five goodly Chaityakas) for *Chaityakapañchamā*, (with Chaityaka as the fifth). For a note by Keith see IHQ, 1939, 163-64.
