For Kauṭilya's ‘durga,’ fort, Manu and the author of the Śāntiparvan (loc. cit.) substitute ‘pura,’ city,—a change which was doubtless suggested by the antithesis between ‘pura’ and ‘janapada.’ Furthermore, Manu (loc. cit.) has ‘rāṣṭra’ instead of ‘janapada’, while Yājñavalkya (loc. cit.) uses the term ‘jana,’ people.
