The names Choromandel, Negapatam, and Tanjore are easy to distinguish in this list. “Bomgarin” I cannot identify, though the termination, *garim*, may represent *giri*, “mountain.” “Dapatao” may be Devipatnam. “Truguel” seems to have some affinity with Tirukovil. It cannot be the “Truguel” mentioned by Barros and others as one of the fortresses given to Asada Khân by the king of Vijayanagar (above, p. 175), because those were close to Belgaum, while this “Truguel” was in the extreme south. “Caullim” may be Kayal.
