v1.c6.s5.3
The *dakshiṇaparvata* of the *Kaushitaki Upanishad* may indeed have reference to the Vindhyas, but cannot possibly intend the Sahya or the Mahendra. The *Purāṇas* place in the Vindhyan region a tribe called Nishadhas who are apparently alluded to in the *Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa* under the cognomen Naishadha. But the peoples in the Marāṭhā and Telugu districts are not mentioned in that text.
