∗ Wilkes, i. 134—136 (Madras reprint.) Kaep. 101. Manucci (Storia, iii. 242) says that the two Karnataks were separated by the Marakkanam river,—the Bijapuri extending to Porto Novo and the Haidarabadi to Sadras. As for Telingana (or the Gingerlee Country, as it is called in the Madras Factory Records), it stretched along the coast from the Krishna northwards to the frontier of Orissa and included Masulipatam (the capital), Vizagapatam, and Chicacole. It formed a separate province, under its own viceroy.
