*Set Mahet*.—Set or Sāheth is on the borders of the Goṇḍā and the Bahraich districts. It is situated on the river Rāpti in the district of Goṇḍā, 58 miles north of Ayodhyā, and 42 miles north of Goṇḍā. An inscription has been discovered here in a Buddhist monastery, which records that a donor after bathing in the Ganges at Vārāṇasī and worshipping Vāsudeva and other gods, granted some villages to the Buddhist fraternity (*E.I.*, XI, 20-26).
