³ The Avadâna Śataka (No. 88) preserves an old tradition that some merchants from Madhyadeśa in reply to queries in the south, stated that some regions were under Gaṇas and some under Râjas. Kâtyâyana, IV, 168, also distinguishes between saṃgha and Ekarâja. See D. R. Bhandarkar, Lectures on the Ancient History of India, p. 147.
