∗ I take it that *Pallivana* is the Sanskritized form of *Palavna*, a town (giving its name to a district) situated 12 m.n. of Dapoli, while Mandangarh is 5 m.n. of Palavna. The fort of *Palgarh* (built by Shivaji) is in the Khed sub-division, 6 m. n. of Khed. *Sangameshwar* is a well-known holy city, 10 m.n.w. of Devrukh. *Shringarpur* is 8 m.n.e. of Sangameshwar, and is overlooked by *Prachitgarh*, 2 m. to its east; the Tivra pass being 4 m. s. of it. [Degree sheet 47 G.] *Prabhavali* or Pravanvalli is just below Vishalgarh to the s.w. In old records Dabhol and Prabhavali are coupled together, though the two towns are far apart.
