Bharukachchha—Baroach, the Barygaza of the Greeks (Vinaya, III, 38). Bali Râjâ attended by his priest Sukrâchârya performed a sacrifice at this place, when he was deprived of his kingdom by Vishṇu in the shape of a dwarf, Vâmana, (Matsya P., ch. 114). Sarvavarmâ Âchârya, the author of the Kâtantra or Kalâpa Vyâkaraṇa and contemporary of Râjâ Śâtavâhana of Pratishṭhâna was a resident of Bharukachchha (Kathâ-sarit-Sâgara, Pt. I, ch. 6). The Jaina temple of Śakunikâvihâra was constructed by Âmrabhaṭa in the reign of Kumârapala, king of Pattana, in the 12th century. Bharukachchha was also called Bhṛigupura (Tawney : Prabandhachintâmaṇi, p. 136). In the Suppâraka Jâtaka (Jâtaka, Cam. ed., iv, p. 86), Bharukachchha is said to be a seaport town in the kingdom of Bharu.
