MANDALAE

MANDALAE (Μανδάλαι, Ptol. 7.1.72), an Indian tribe who occupied both banks of the Ganges in the neighbourhood of Palimbothra (Patna), which was perhaps (as has been conjectured by some geographers), their chief city. They seem [p. 2.257]however, to have lived rather lower down the river near Monghir, in the district now called Behar. (See Lassen's map.)
