∗ Prof. Dowson’s edition of Sir Henry Elliot’s Hist. of India, i. 40. Ibn Haukal: Kannazbur. At page 29 he gives Istakhri’s name as Kannazbûn, which Mordtmann reads Firiun. The most probable explanation of these differences is some confusion in the Arabic characters between the name of Nirun and that of the capital of Mekrân.
