prefix signifying altitude. India, after the
„ „submergence

„ „situated
at the southern extremity of Lemuria, and the
„ „subsequent
emergence of the Himalayas at its northern
„ „extremity
naturally became of higher level in the North
„ „and
lower level in the South. This situaton led to the
„ cardinal
points of North and South being named
„ „uttaram and
dakkanam, respectively, in India. Thus, the
„ two
names are relative terms like m„Šku,
west or higher „ „side,
and ki‰akku, east or lower side.
