Re: [INDOLOGY] Kampil/Kāmpilya

[Gaia Pintucci]

Dear Prof. Paturi,

Thanks, I omitted this in my first message.
I knew about the town you mention from a 1956 article by Derrett, although
he does not seem to have a strong opinion as to the identification of the
mahābhāratian Kāmpilya with Kampli in KA.
