77 Kabul or Ko-fu is, in the Eastern Han annals, called a state of the Yüeh-_k_i.
78 Generally identified with the Getæ, but without sufficient proof.

81 This name is written in various ways, Ka-shio-ma-tô-giya, Ka-shio-ma-tô, Shio-ma-tô, Ka-tô, Ma-tô. In the Fan-i-ming-i-tsi (vol. iii. fol. 4 a), it is said "that K. was a native of Central India, and a Brâhman by caste. Having been invited by the Chinese envoy, Tsâi-yin, he came to China, saw the Emperor, and died in Lo-yang, the capital." Of _K_û-fa-lan it is said (_l. c._ vol. iii. fol. 4) that he was a native of Central India, well versed in Vinaya. When invited to go to China, the King would not let him depart. He left secretly, and arrived in China after Kâsyapa. They translated the Sûtra in forty-two sections together. After Kâsyapa died, _K_û-fa-lan translated five Sûtras.
82 See Vasala-sutta (in Nipâta-sutta), _v._ 22.
83 Fa is the Buddhist equivalent for friar.
84 Mr. B. Nanjio informs me that both in China and Japan Buddhist priests adopt either _K_û, the last character of Tien-_k_û, India, or Shih, the first character of Shih-kia--_i. e._ Sâkya--as their surname.

87 His translations occur in Beal's _Catalogue_, pp. 31, 35, 37, 38, 40 (_bis_), 41 (_bis_), 42 (_bis_), 43, 45, 46, 47, 49, 50, 51 (_ter_), 52 (_bis_), 54, 70, 88, 95 (_bis_). In the K'ai-yuen-lu it is stated that he translated 99 works in 115 fascicles.
88 Wû, comprising _K_eh-kiang and other parts, with its capital in what is now Sû-_k_au, was the southern one of the Three Kingdoms. Sun-_kh_üan was its first sovereign.

91 This name, _K_û-fâ-hu, is generally re-translated as Dharmaraksha. _K_û is the second character in Tien-_k_û, the name of India, and this character was used as their surname by many Indian priests while living in China. In that case their Sanskrit names were mostly translated into two Chinese characters: as Fâ, (law = dharma), hu (protection = raksha).--B. N.
