Q - Kingdom Names

[Guest guest]

Dimple-Rana,

 

Here are a few more:

 

Mathura = Mathura, U.P. (originally Madhupura) -

(http://www.cuhcs.org.uk/holyPlaces/mathura.html)

 

Chedi = Bundelkhand District of U.P.

(http://www.hamirpur.nic.in/history.htm)

 

Vidarbha = near Nagpur, Maharashtra

(http://www.nagpuronline.com/history/anchist6.html)

 

Panchal = U.P. - as in 'Kuru-Panchala'

(http://www.upindia.org/uphistory.html). BTW, the Persian

word 'Cyrus' is the same as the Sanskrit word 'Kuru'.

 

You can find out more by doing a simple search on the web.

 

For a more complete view of Indian history, please download my

timeline (Royal Chronology) from my website below and let me know if

you have any questions.

 

Thank you,

- Raj Mohanka
