jputs,
nevertheless trace their descent from the monkey-god Hanuman, and confirm
it by alleging that their princes still bear its evidence in a tail-like
prolongation of the spine; a tradition which has probably a real
ethnological meaning, pointing out the Jaitwas as of non-Aryan
race."(1040) TYLOR'S _Primitive Culture_, Vol. I. p. 341.

Page 378. Northern Kurus.

Professor Lassen remarks in the Zeitschrift fuer die Kunde des
Morgenlandes, ii. 62: "At the furthest accessible extremity of the earth
appears Harivarsha with the northern Kurus. The region of Hari or Vishnu
belongs to the system of mythical geography; but the case is different
with the Uttara Kurus. Here there is a real basis of geographical fact; of
which fable has only taken advantage, without creating it. The Uttara
Kurus were formerly quite independent of the mythical system of _dvipas_,
though they were included in it at an early date." Again the same writer
says at p. 65: "That the conception of the Uttara Kurus is based upon an
actual country and not on mere invention, is proved (1) by the way in
which they are mentioned
