57. The N.W. part of Ceylon (Geiger). The Vallabha has sometimes been identified with the Rāṣṭrakūṭa Kṛṣṇa III (Codrington *Ceylon Coins* p. 50). But the Cōḷas were called 'Vaḷava' and the Vessagiri inscription implies that the invaders were Tamils. See Codrington's *Short History of Ceylon* pp. 39 and 53.
