5. Mk abc—अधारका मुदकराः, d—अन्धा वका मुद्गराः, c (v.l.)—अन्धवाश्च मुद्गराः ; Vy acde, Bmd—अन्धवाकाः सुजरकाः; Vy b—अन्धवाका मुद्रकाः; Mts ab—अङ्गा वङ्गा मदगराः, c—अङ्गा वङ्गा भद्गराः, v.l.—अङ्गा वङ्गा भद्रकाः, अङ्गा वङ्गा मदगराः, Vmn—अङ्गा वङ्गा मदगुराः. Aṅga and Vaṅga appear to have been separated from Āṅgeya and Vāṅgeya through confusion (cf. below). Mudgaraka (modern Monghyr) is the same as Mudgara of Km and Mudgagiri of inscriptions. Aṅga=East Bihar and Vaṅga=South-East Bengal. For the Aṅga capital Campā near Lakhisarai in the Monghyr Dist., see JBRS, Vol. XLI, p. 150. For the Vaṅga capital near the mouth fo the Bhāgīrathī, see below.
