Locac

According to W. Tomaschek (Die topographischen Capitel des Indischen Seespiegels Moḥīṭ, Vienna, 1897, Map XXIII.) it should be read Lōšak = The Lochac of the G. T. “It is Laṅkāçoka of the Tanjore inscription of 1030, the Ling ya ssī kia of the Chu-fan-chï of Chau Ju-kua, the Lěṅkasuka of the Nāgarakrětāgama, the Lang-šakā of Sulayman al Mahri, situated on the eastern side of the Malay Peninsula.” (G. Ferrand, Malaka, le Malāyu et Malāyur, J. As., July–Aug, 1918, p. 91.) On the situation of this place which has been erroneously identified with Tenasserim, see ibid., pp. 134–145. M. Ferrand places it in the region of Ligor.
