Kothuraka.—This village is mentioned in the Kothuraka Grant of Pravarasena II as the donated place. It was situated in the territorial division of Supratiṣṭha. It lay to the west of the Umā river, to the north of Ciñcāpalli, to the east of Bonthikavāṭaka, and to the south of Maṇḍukigrāma. Its site seems to be occupied by Mangaon on the right bank of the river Wunnā, about 2½ miles north by west of Jāmb in the Nagpur district (E.I., XXVI, Pt. V, October, 1941).
