Histories that mention Achalla
These are published records whose own words name Achalla. A mention is not a history of Achalla, which is why they are listed here rather than with the histories about it. Records already listed above are not repeated.
Read as: Achalla, Ihiala. Counted where the name is written with a capital, because a lower-case occurrence of a name that is also an ordinary word is the word.
