Guest guest Posted July 29, 2002 Report Share Posted July 29, 2002 Dear List Members, I am working on a 200 year old Sanskrit manuscript of a text called Vedavicaara. This particular manuscript was copied by a Marathi pundit named Hari Vishnu Palnitkar. He describes himself as "mohapaatainvaasin", resident of Mohapaata. From other references to this individual in Marathi documents, we know that he came from the vicinity of the town of Panwel near Bombay. I am wondering about the identity of Mohapaata, obviously a Sanskritization of a local village or town name. Any suggestions on what the original Marathi place name might be? Thanks.
