In a Report recently sent to the Government of Madras on antiquities discovered at Bēzwaḍa, and the Rock-cut Temple at Uṇḍavilli (both on the Lower Kṛishṇā in South-Eastern India), I devoted considerable space to the question of the identity of the former place with the capital city of Dhanakacheka as described by Hiouen-Thsang. I do not claim to be in any sense considered as the originator of this discovery, Mr. Fergusson having previously pointed out, first the likelihood, and afterwards the certainty, that the two places were identical.

page 102 note 1 I prefer the former of the two renderings as giving a very accurate description of what is to be seen on the hill-side at Bēzwaḍa, though the second also applies, as there is a cavern of considerable size at the back of the mountain.
page 102 note 2 This is an exact description of the position of the hill-face and its remains on the west of the town, as seen from the monastery on the hill to the east. For the expression does not mean “on the opposite side of the mountain,” but “on the side of the mountain opposed to, or facing, this.”
