^{page 47 note 1} I take this opportunity of mentioning that of the Stein documents treated in these articles those indicated as M.I. (Mīrān) and most of those indicated as M.T. (Mazār Tāgh)—excluding any from the “Third Expedition”—are among those examined by Professor A. H. Francke for Sir A. Stein's “Reports”. The slips containing Professor Francke's accounts of the documents (in their then unimproved condition) are preserved in the India Office Library, where they can, no doubt, with consent, be consulted. The information elicited by him is summarized in his well-known article (JRAS. 1914, pp. 37–59) and in his “Appendix G”, pp. 1460–6 of Sir A. Stein's Serindia.

^{page 72 note 1} The occurrence of this title was noted by me, JRAS. 1927, pp. 121–3, with citation of Nos. 23–5 below. The latter, with Nos. 27 and 29, and also a new document from Turfan have now been discussed in a recent paper (Königsnamen von Khotan (A-ma-ca) . . . SPAW., pp. 671–6, issued Jan. 1929) by Professor A. H. Francke. I am glad to see that Professor Francke, who originally had understood the syllables a-ma-ca, am-cha, where he had read them, differently, now accepts the reference to the officials called amacas. How far I agree with his readings and renderings will be seen below (except as concerns the Turfan document, in which, I may remark, the phrase stag-sras-dgyes-gyi-rtse is a place-name; see infra, pp. 264–5). That any of the persons named are royal I am far from believing.
