In the Chino-Japanese map of India, constructed to illustrate the pilgrim's travels, the district of Choliya is named Chu-ey-no, and is placed to the north of Drâviḍa, and to the south-west of Dhanaka, as in the text of Hwen Thsang. These Chinese syllables may perhaps represent *Kandanúr*, which, according to Buchanan, is the correct form of the name of *Karnúl*.
