Dt Ambala, 4 km to the e. of Jagadhri on the w. bank along the flood-plain (\*khādar\*) of the Yamuna. The mound covers an area of over 5 km in circumference, largely covered by modern habitation and heavily eroded on the n. by a seasonal nullah of the Yamuna. The ruins were identified by Cunningham, \*ASI—AR\*, 2. pp. 226-7; 1963, p. 290) with Su-Lu-’in-na (Srughna) of Hiuen Tsang (Beal, 1884, 1, p. 186) who saw here Buddhist \*stūpas\* and monasteries and Brāhmaṇical temples. Srughna is perhaps identical with Tūrghna mentioned in the \*Taittirīya Āraṇyaka\* (5.1) as marking the n. border of Kurukṣetra. It is also mentioned in Sanskrit literature as a city of importance. - [Previous: v2.c45.933](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45.933) - [Next: v2.c45.935](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45.935) - [Up: v2.c45](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45) ## Cites (1) - [Taittirīyāraṇyaka](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.aranyaka.taittiriya.5.1) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45.934](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c45.934) · Pramāṇa
