a town of Cambaya, in the dominions of the Great Mogul; it is walled round, and was formerly a place of great trade. It is now inhabited by weavers and such mechanics as manufacture cotton cloth. Here they have the best cotton in the world, and of consequence the best bastes are manufactured in this place. The English and Dutch had formerly factories here, which are now abandoned. E.
