The Bargujar tribe claims descent from Lava or Lao, the elder son of Rama. As they trace fifty-six descents from Rama to Vikrama, and thirty-three from Raja Nala to Dhola Rae, we have only to calculate the number of generations between Vikrama and Nal, to ascertain whether Dhola’s genealogist went on good grounds. It was in S. 351 that Raja Nal erected Narwar, which, at twenty-two years to a reign, gives sixteen to be added to fifty-six, and this added to thirty-three is equal to one hundred and five generations from Rama to Dhola Rae. [The traditional dates are worthless.] Footnote 9.1.12: [See Rose, _Glossary_, iii. 103.] Footnote 9.1.13: [The tale of the love of Dulha or Dhola Rāē for Mārwan, the Maroni of the text, daughter of Rāja Pingal of Pingalgarh in Sinhaladwīpa, or Ceylon, as sung by the Panjab bards, is told in Temple, _Legends of the Panjāb_, ii. 276 ff., iii. 97.] Footnote 9.1.14: [The family deity of the Kachhwāha tribe, whose shrine is in the gorge of the river Bānganga, in Jaipur State (_Census Report, Mārwār_, 1891, ii. 28; _Rajputana Gazetteer_, 1880, iii. 212).] Footnote 9.1.15: Kot is ‘a fortress’; but it may be applied simply to the number of bastions of Nain, which in the number of its gates might rival Thebes. Lohwan, built on its ruins, contains three thousand houses, and has eighty-four townships dependent on it. [In the third line of the verse Major Luard’s Pandit reads for _vado_, _dūbo_, ‘annihilated’; in the fourth for _vāmto_, he gives _muttha_, ‘a handful.’] Footnote 9.1.16: Pal is the term for a community of any of the aboriginal mountain races; its import is a ‘defile,’ or ‘valley,’ fitted for cultivation and defence. It is probable that Poligar may be a corruption of Paligar, or the region (_gar_) of these _Pals_. Palita, Bhilita, Philita are terms used by the learned for the Bhil tribes. Maina, Maira, Mairot all designate mountaineers, from _Mair_, or _Mer_, a hill. [The ‘Palita’ of the note is possibly from a vague recollection of the Phyllītai or ‘leaf-clad’ applied to some aboriginal tribes by Ptolemy (vii. 1. 66) (McCrindle, _Ptolemy_, 159 f.).] Footnote 9.1.17: [This is probably a fiction of the bards, based on the defeat of Shihābu-d-dīn by Bhīmdeo of Nahrwāla in A.D. 1178 (Elliot-Dowson ii. 294; Ferishta i. 170).] Footnote 9.1.18: _Kurma_, or _Kachhua_, are synonymous terms, and indiscriminately applied to the Rajputs of Ajmer; meaning ‘tortoise.’ Footnote 9.1.19: The chaplet of the god of war is of skulls; his drinking-cup a semi-cranium. Footnote 9.1.20: [The hero of the Mahābhārata.] Footnote 9.1.21: [Ganga, the Ganges; Dikpāls, regents of the four quarters of the heavens.] Footnote 9.1.22: [The serpent which supports the world.] Footnote 9.1.23:
