Daṇḍakārañña

Place

Ein Wald, der Kaliṅga überwucherte, nachdem es durch das Verbrechen König Daṇḍakīs verwüstet worden war, entlang der Godāvarī gelegen und das Mittelland vom Dekkan trennend.

The forest that overgrew Kāliṅga when it was laid waste through the wickedness of King Daṇḍakī(q.v.) (M.i.378; Mil.130).

It was on the banks of the Godāvarī and, with the Viñjhātavi, separated the Majjhimadesa from the Dakkhiṇāpatha. It probably comprised all the forests from Bundelkhand to the river Krishna.
