Bitabhaya-pattana—Biha. eleven miles south-west of Allahabad on the right bank of the Jamuna (*Vira-charitra* of the Jainas quoted by General Cunningham in *Arch. S. R-p.*, vol. 3). But from seals found by Sir John Marshall at Bhiṭā, the ancient name of the place appears to be Vichhi and Vichhi-grâma, and not Bitabhaya-pattana (*JRAS.*, 1911, p. 127).
