Whether the *Jat Kathida* is the Jat or Getae of Cathay (*da* being the mark of the genitive case) we will leave to conjecture [?]. [Ney Elias (*History of the Moghuls of Central Asia*, 75) suggests that the theory of the connexion between Jāts and Getae was largely based on an error regarding the term *jatah*, ‘rascal,’ applied as a mark of reproach to the Moguls by the Chagatai.]
