NOTE 1: ATKINSON (1882, 11 edited 1991, 2: 348) after the »ancient« (medieval?) Kedara Khanda, a Sanskrit geography claiming to be part of the Skanda Purana.

A reputedly great cave is said (note 1) to be the troglodyte home, where the mythical saint / sage Vyasa (Vyas, Byas) still lives on the Khandakhya peak, to the south of which flows the Savitri stream through the Bedmatristhal.
