– The Kingdom of Zihe 子合 (modern
Shahidulla)
1. Zihe
子合
[Tzu-ho]
was in the region of modern Shahidulla – see note 5.1 above. For a discussion of
the name and later forms of it, see Pulleyblank (1963), p.
109.
“Identified
by the Tangshu (chap. CCXXI, a, p.
9b) with Zhujubo 朱俱波 [Chu-chü-po] or Zhujupan 朱俱縏
[Chu-chü-p’an] which appears to be
identified with Karghalik (BEFEO, bk. III, p. 397, n. 4).” Translated and
adapted from Chavannes (1907), p. 175, n. 1 [but see note 5.1 above re the
identification of this place].
2. Hujian Gorge 呼鞬 [Hu-chien]. This presumably refers to the upper valley of the Karakash River in which Shahidullah (Xaidulla) is situated.
