city took its place. The exact position of Firuzabad, however,
cannot now be fixed. The small towns of KaWr and Shal, which

in Khalkhal, the names of which, however, cannot now be
identified 1 .
The few products of Adharbayjan will be described at the end
of the next chapter ; and the summary of the high roads through
this province must be deferred to the conclusion of Chapter XV,
after describing the Jibal province, for these roads all start from
various points on the great Khurasan road which traverses the
latter province.
