⁵ This is the north-eastern *kanaka* or ‘gold region’ of the topographical list in that work; J. F. Fleet, *Ind. Ant.* xxii, 1893, p. 171. Its topographical indications are said to be none too accurate, but it gives another ‘gold region’ in the western division, in Aparānta (east coast of the Gulf of Cambaye), which can only refer to the imported gold of the Roman period, when, besides coin from the Roman Empire, Barygaza was importing gold from Omana (p. 483), whether Arabian gold re-exported (*Periplus* 36) or gold from the Hyctanis in Carmania (Pliny vi, 98).
