Dear Ole,

Thank you for your reply.

There are two parallel texts, one Chinese and one Tibetan.  The Tibetan
gives a standard translation for *kharjuuri and the Chinese has the
transcription of a Prakrit form.  The reason why I wondered about an
Ardha-magadhi connection is because the word is given as a gotra name for a
family in Saurashtra c150CE.

Best wishes,
Stephen Hodge
