a syāhāmohara of Śrīkṛṣṇa Śāha, issued in 1781 (ŚS 1702), mentions that Bhagavantanātha received "Pedā of Kharkākoṭa" (Naraharinātha VS 2022: 459; cf. K_0469_0017 [doc. 12]);

later documents locate Pedā/Pyādā in the ambala of Salyan ( K_0469_0022, Naraharinātha VS 2022: 461) or in Dang district (jillā; cf. K_0469_0045, table 21 in K_0469_0017 lists "Kharkākoṭ together with Pedā" under the heading "[birtās] in Dang");
