Your letter provided very interesting and instructive reading. In common with the majority of laymen, I have so far been entertaining the idea that the word Sakadwipa means the land of the Sakas or Scythians; that the term had any other meaning never seemed to strike me. The interpretation which you have now put upon it must be quite new to a very large number of people, including, I am sure, a number of scholars both Indian and foreign.
