Prabhāsa.—The modern village of Pabhosā stands on a cliff overlooking the northern bank of the Yamunā, in tehsil Manjhanpur, 32 miles south-west of Allahabad, which represents the ancient site of Prabhāsa. The hill of Prabhāsa, which is the only rock in the Antarvedī or the Doab between the Ganges and the Jumna, is three miles to the north-west of the great fort of Kosam-Khirāj, the ancient Kauśāmbī, where some inscriptions were discovered (*E.I.*, II, 240).
