c8.19

Aritthapura. From the Sivi Jātaka (Jāt., IV, p. 401) we know that Aritthapura was the capital of the Sivi kingdom. Several Jātakas mention (e.g., Nimi Jātaka, No. 541) a king named Usīnara and his son Sibi; but whether this prince Sibi had anything to do with the Sibi people or their country, it is difficult to ascertain.
