Māṇḍukigrāma.—This village is mentioned in the Kothuraka Grant of Pravarasena II (*E.I.*, XXVI, V, 155ff.). It is identified with modern Māṇḍagaon, two miles to the north of Mangaon, in the Nagpur district. According to tradition, Māṇḍagaon is named after a sage Māṇḍa, who is said to have done penance on the Wunnā river in the Nagpur district (*Wardhah District Gazetteer*, 1906, p. 250).
