Some of the states treated ambiguously by the Greeks were very likely Saṁghas. We have already seen a few of this class. The state of \*Phegelas\* is probably another of them.¹ The name has been taken by scholars to be identical with Sanskrit \*Bhagala\*, in view of the Gaṇapāṭha's \*Bhāgala\*² which comes along with the republican Traigartas. Alexander's \*Phegelas\* occupied the same region. Another such state was that of the \*Glausai\* or \*Glaukanikoi\*³ (Arrian) who appear to be republican. They are identical with the \*Glauchukāyanakas\* of the Kāśikā.⁴ - [Previous: c16.81](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16.81) - [Next: c16.83](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16.83) - [Up: c16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16) ## Cites (1) - [Gaṇapāṭha](https://indike.org/pramana/in.vedanga.vyakarana.khila.ganapatha) — Pāṇini, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16.82](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16.82) · Pramāṇa
