The Śālvas are mentioned in the *Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa* (X. 4. 1. 10). The *Mantrapāṭha* indicates their location near the Yamunā, and it is not likely that they were in the north-west in Vedic times. The epic associates the Śālvas with the Kuru-Pañchālas, and they occupied probably what is now the modern Alwar state.
