NOTE 1: Indian Archaeology: A Review [IAR] (1961-1962: 102); ROCK ART OF INDIA (1984); SUNDARA, A (1984: 137). NOTE 2: »Chick« (IAR 1961-1962) is not identified. NOTE 3: »Rampura« (IAR 1961-1962) is not identified. NOTE 4: »Chikrampura« (IAR 1961-1962) seems to be a contraction of »Chik« and »Rampur.« NOTE 5: Anaigondhi, Anegundi or Anegondi, the »Annagundi, suburb of Bijanugger on the north bank of the Tumbuddra« (Tungabhadra River) of NEWBOLD, T J (1845c: 518-519) lies north-west of Hampi (Hampe) in Raichur (Raijur) district. Some believe Anegondi is the Kishkindha of the Ramayana (vikraman.com/MaruthiPramanam.htm accessed 2002.10.15).
