Tagara—See Dharagara. Dr. Fleet has identified it with Ter (Thair), 95 miles south-east of Paiṭhâna, in the Waldrug district of Hyderabad. Tagara is mentioned in the inscriptions found at Tanna (Thana) and Satara (Conder’s Modern Traveller, vol. X, p. 286). Dr. Bhagavanlal Indraji identifies it with Junnari in the Poona district (Early History of Gujarat); and Rev. A. K. Nairne and Sir R. G. Bhandarkar (Early History of the Dekkan, sec. viii, p. 32) with Darur or Dharur in the Nizam’s Dominions (Bom. Gaz., vol. I, pt. II, p. 16, note 3). Wilford identifies it with Devagiri or Daulatabad, Dr. Burgess with Roza near Devagiri and Yule with Kulbarga. It has also been identified with Trikûṭa (see Trikûṭa).
