Also known as Kāsinigama

Mahākosala의 딸이 Bimbisāra와 결혼할 때 지참금으로 준 Kāsi의 마을로, 훗날 Pasenadi가 Ajātasattu로부터 이를 회수하면서 두 나라 사이에 전쟁이 일어났다.

Probably the actual name of the village in Kāsi which was given by Mahākosala to his daughter when she married Bimbisāra. The village produced a revenue of one hundred thousand, and was given to the queen for her bath and perfume money. After Bimbisāra’s death, Pasenadi withdrew the gift from Ajātasattu, which act was the cause of a war between the two. Later, when Pasenadi’s daughter Vajirā was married to Ajātasattu, the village was given back as part of her dowry. J.ii.403; iv.342; S.i.82 ff; SA.i.110, 120 f; AA.ii.833; DhA.iii.259.
