One of my journals mentions that a branch of the Luni passes by Sui, the capital of Virawah, where it is four hundred and twelve paces in breadth: an error, I imagine. [Sūigām is on the E. shore of the Rann, and the Lūni does not pass by it or by Virawāh.] Footnote 8.2.7: _Pursa_, the standard measure of the desert, is here from six to seven feet, or the average height of a man, to the tip of his finger, the hand being raised vertically over the head. It is derived from _purush_, ‘man.’ Footnote 8.2.8: [Pital is another name for the Kalbi farming caste, Kalbi being apparently the local form of the name Kanbi or Kunbi (_Census Report, Mārwār_, 1891, ii. 343). The caste does not appear in the 1911 Census Report of Rājputāna.] Footnote 8.2.9: [Arabic _zunnār_, probably Greek ζωνάριον The Hindi _janeo_ is Skt. _yajnopavīta_, the investiture of youths with the sacred thread, and later the thread itself.] Footnote 8.2.10: [For a full account of the Kolis see _BG_, ix. Part i. 237 ff.] Footnote 8.2.11: [Iguanas (Yule, _Hobson-Jobson_, 2nd ed. 379 f.)] Footnote 8.2.12: [That is to say, from Bahāwalpur on the N. to Baliāri on the N. shore of the Rann of Cutch, a distance, as the crow flies, of some 380 miles.] Footnote 8.2.13: [The original is condensed. “The lands of the Rāthor, who rules nine districts, are for the most part all sand; they have little or no water. The wells in some places are so deep that the water is drawn with the help of oxen. When water is to be drawn, those who set the animals to work beat a drum as a warning that the pot is at the mouth of the well, and they are about to draw water” (Manucci ii. 432).] Footnote 8.2.14: [About 15 miles N. of Umarkot. See Elliot-Dowson i. 532.] Footnote 8.2.15: [The name Dhāt has disappeared from modern maps, and is not to be found in the _IGI_.] Footnote 8.2.16: See table of tribes, and sketch of the Pramaras, Vol. I. pp. 98 and 107. Footnote 8.2.17: _Ferishta_ [iv. 411], Abu-l Fazl [_Āīn_, ii. 337, 340 ff.]. Footnote 8.2.18: [A better version runs: “_Pirthī barā Panwār, Pirthi Panwārān tāni; Ek Ujjaini Dhār, dūjē Ābū baithno._” “The Panwār the greatest on earth, and the world belongs to the Panwārs. Their early seats were Ujjain, Dhār, and Mount Ābū” (_Census Report, Mārwār_, 1891, ii. 29).] Footnote 8.2.19: [St. Martin fixes the capital of the Sogdoi at Alor or Aror, but Cunningham would place it higher up stream, about midway between Alor and Uchh, at the village of Sirwahi (McCrindle, _Alexander_, 354).] Footnote 8.2.20:
