It corresponds with the ' bridge [pul] at Thomri [sic] halfway between Ghori and Baghlán’ mentioned by Sir Henry Yule in his ‘Essay’ introducing Captain John Wood's Journey, p. lxxxi and marked on his map.

page 367 note 3 cf. E. Benveniste, Textes sogdiens, p. 176. The Manichaean Sogdian form referred to in BSOAS, xi, 720, should be read and restored as [č]xwδβγδ'nyy = synagogue; the corresponding Middle Persian word was presumably qwnyšt.

page 367 note 4 If M. Curiel is right in assuming that KIPΔOMI is a complete word, and in his interpretation of it as kirdo-mī ‘made of me’, the second line may mean ‘I made Bagolango …’ or ‘I made [this] sanctuary …’.
