Note 8 — Chapter III · KHOTEN. PROCESSIONS OF IMAGES. THE KING’S NEW MONASTERY.
James Legge translation
(8) K’eeh-ch’a has not been clearly identified. Rémusat made it Cashmere; Klaproth, Iskardu; Beal makes it Kartchou; and Eitel, Khas’a, “an ancient tribe on the Paropamisus, the Kasioi of Ptolemy.” I think it was Ladak, or some well-known place in it. Hwuy-tah, unless that name be an alias, appears here for the first time.
