Mândâgora—Mândâḍ, originally Mândâgaḍa, situated in the Rajapuri creek near Kudem in the Bombay Presidency (McCrindle’s *Ptolemy*, VII, ch. I, sec. 7; but see W. H. Schoff’s *Periplus of the Erythraean Sea*, p. 201). Bhandarkar also identifies it with Mândâḍ (*Early Hist. of the Dekkan*, sec. viii). It has also been identified with Mandangar fort in the Ratnagiri district, Bombay (*Bomb. Gaz.*, vol. I, pt. I, 541-546), and with Mândal in Kolaba district (*ibid.*, vol. I, pt. II).
