Neither in these Records nor in the Life is the distance stated, but in the "Fang-chih", Magadha, that is, Rājagaha, is 150 \*li\* to the south of Vaiśālī. Fa-hsien merely tells us that from the Ānanda Topes he crossed the river and descended south for a yojana into the Magadha country.¹ Between Vaiśālī and Pāṭaliputra lay the Vajjian villages Na-t'ê (那陀) or Nataka, and farther on kou-li (拘利) or Koṭi, the latter being separated from the Magadha country by a river, viz., the Ganges.²
