Mutoḷ�, (?) a doubtful word occurring only in one stock phrase, viz. “ubhato-mukhā m. pūrā nānā-vihitassa dhaññassa� at M. I, 57 (vv. ll. putoḷi, mūṭolī)=III, 90 (mūtoḷ�)=D. II, 293 (T. mutoli, v. l. muṭoli; gloss K pūtolī). The Dial. II. 330 trsl. “sample bag� (see note on this passage; with remark “spelling uncertain�). Neumann, Mittlere Sammlung I. 101 translates “Sack. � �-� Kern, Toev. s. v. ܳٴḷ� tries to connect it with BSk. ṭa (Hindi moṭh), bundle, which (with vv. ll. mūḍha, muṭa, mūṭa) occurs only in one stock phrase “bharai� motai� piṭakaiḥ� at Divy 5, 332, 501, 524. The more likely solution, however, is that ܳٴḷ� is a distortion of ṭo (puṭosa), which is found as v. l. to ṭaṃs at all passages concerned (see ṭaṃs). Thus the meaning is “bag, provision-bag. � The BSk. ṭa (muṭa) remains to be elucidated. The same meaning “provision-bag� fits at Vism. 328 in cpd. Բ°, where spelling is T. °paṭṭoli, v. l. BB °putoḷi, but which is clearly identical with our term. We should thus prefer to read Բ-ṭo “carriage-bag for provisions. � (Page 537)
