³ In connection with the antiquity of the cult of Kṛishṇa (Vāsudeva) mention may be made of a story recorded by Zenob, a Syrian who flourished about 304 A.D., regarding the erection of a temple to Giṣane (Kṛishṇa?) by the sons of certain Indian chiefs who had fled westward with their clan and found shelter in Armenia (149-127 B.C.)—See Kennedy, *The Indians in Armenia*, JRAS, 1904, 309 ff.
