Kaṇṇapeṇṇā.—A river in the Mahimsaka country, running out of Lake Saṅkhapāla. At the bend of the river and near its source was the mountain Candaka, near which the king of Magadha lived in a hut of leaves, and where he was visited by the Nāga Saṅkhapāla.¹ The river must have formed a lake at this bend, the lake being referred to as Kaṇṇapeṇṇā-daha.²
