Pre-Buddhist India: A Political, Administrative, Economic, Social and Geographical Survey of Ancient India Based Mainly on the Jataka Stories c7.79

c7.79

In order to arrange systematically the mass of geographical material found in the *Jātakas*, we have felt it advisable to place it in a lexiconic order. All the geographical names found in the *Aṭṭhakathā* portions of the *Jātakas* have been arranged in alphabetical order, together with their descriptions as given in the *Jātakas*, their places of reference, and identification and location wherever possible. We have not touched the Introductory portions for this information as we have confined ourselves only to the *Aṭṭhakathā* portion throughout our book, though the former are, in themselves, valuable and have been utilised by other writers.
