    aṃdhra N. of a people and their country. It is said to be the same as the modern Telangaṇa, and the mouths of the Godāvarī were in the possession of the Andhras. But the limits were probably confined to the Ghāts on the west, and the rivers Godāvarī and Kṛṣṇā on the north and south. It bordered on Kaliṅga; (see Dk. 7th Ullāsa,) and its capital aṃdhranagara is probably the old town of Veṅgi or Vegi.
