¹ The story of Wang-hiuen-t’se is fully related in Sylvain Lévi’s article, ‘Les Missions de Wang-Hiuen-T’se dans l’Inde’ (*J. As.*, 1900), which has been translated in *Ind. Ant.*, 1911, pp. 111 seqq. The name of the usurper appears in the Chinese text as Na-fū-ti O-lo-na-shuen, which may represent either Arjuna or Aruṇāśva. Lt.-Col. Waddell’s valuable article ‘Tibetan Invasion of India in A. D. 647 and its Results’ (*As. Qu. Rev.*, Jan., 1911), emphasizes the true position of Tibet at that time, and corrects the date of Harsha’s death.
