D. R. Bhandarkar says that Ceta or Cetiya corresponds roughly to the modern Bundelkhand (Carmichael Lectures, 1918, p. 52). His view was accepted in the Cambridge History of India, p. 84. Rapson says that the Cedis occupied the northern portion of the Central Provinces (Ancient India, p. 162). Pargiter is of opinion that Cedi lies along the south of the Jumna (A.I.H.T., 272). Some hold that Cedi comprised the southern portion of Bundelkhand and the northern portion of Jubbalpur. Cedi was also known as Tripurī (N. L. Dey, Geo. Dict., 14). Sahajāti, a Cedi town, stood on the right bank of the Jumna. A deer park existed in the Pācīnavamśa lying to the east of Vatsa. For further details, vide B. C. Law, Tribes in Ancient India, Ch.
