Those who severally exercise autonomy {ridhipntyam) over the Kulas or clans. Perhaps a most typical example of this kind of rule is furnished by the ^akya clan to which Buddha himself belonged. This clan had spread itself over a number of towns. The chief town, of course, was Kapila- vastu. But there were other townships belong- ing to the ^akyas, such as Chatuma, Silmagilma, ' Megasthenes also refers to republics in Ancient India. TIius he makes the general remark tliat "those who live ncnr th...e sea linve no kings " and also mentions the MalteconXo and four otlicr trihes wlio "are free and have no kim^s" (I. A. , VI. 3-10-1 ). ' 111, 76. ADMINISTRATIVE HISTORY. 161 Khomadiissa, Devadaha and so forth^ . There are no grounds to suppose that an office-holder was appointed by the ^akyas from time to time as Prof. Rhys Davids has said"^ . The Pali Canon speaks only once of a king of the ^akyas. This king that they mention is Bhaddiya'^, and the words used are Bhaddiyo Sakya-raja Sakyanam rajjam kareti.
