Kolahala-Parvata—1 The Brahmayoni hill in Gaya (Vayu P, I, ch 45, Dr R L Mitra's Buddha Gaya, pp 14, 15), including the hill called Munda prishtha which contains the impression of Gadadhara's feet (Ibid, II, ch 50, v 24) 2 A range of hill in Chedi (Mbh Adi, ch 63). It has been identified by Mr Beglar with the Kawa kol range in Bihar (Arch. S. Rep., vol. VIII, p. 124). But this identification does not appear to be correct; it is the Bandair range on the south-west of Bundelkhand in which the river Ken (the ancient Śuktimatī) has its source (Mbh., Ādi, ch. 63).
