Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan, or the Central and Western Rajput States of India v1.c16.42

v1.c16.42

Many surveyed lines were made by me from 1817 to 1822; and here I express my obligations to my kinsman,² to whom alone I owe any aid for improving this portion of my geographical labours. This officer made a circuitous survey, which comprehended nearly the extreme points of Mewar, from the capital, by Chitor, Mandalgarh, Jahazpur, Rajmahall, and in return by Banai, Badnor, Deogarh [8], to the point of outset. From these extreme points he was enabled to place many intermediate ones, for which Mewar is so favourable, by reason of its isolated hills.
