In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Puranic EncyclopediaᲹ첹ṭa (भोजक�).—The capital of Vidarbha. Once Sahadeva, one of the Pāṇḍavas conquered this city. It was at this place that Śrī Kṛṣṇa defeated Rukmī, the brother of Rukmiṇ� at the time of Rukmiṇī’s Svayaṃvara. The original name of Ჹ첹ṭa was "Kuṇḍinapura". (Mahābhārata Sabhā Parva, Chapter 31 and Udyoga Parva, Chapter 158).
: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: The Purana IndexᲹ첹ṭa (भोजक�).—The capital of Rukmin: the city founded by him for his residence, as he wanted to keep his word not to enter Kuṇḍina without killing Kṛṣṇa. Here was celebrated the marriage of Aniruddha and which Balarāma and others attended and then left for Dvārakā;1 the ⲹṃv of Pradymna's daughter took place at.2

The Purana (पुरा�, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
India history and geography
: Ancient Buddhist Texts: Geography of Early BuddhismᲹ첹ṭa (भोजक�) possibly corresponds with Bhoja: a locality situated in Dakkhiṇāpatha (Deccan) or “southern district� of ancient India, as recorded in the Pāli Buddhist texts (detailing the geography of ancient India as it was known in to Early Buddhism).—Bhoja coincides with Berar or ancient Vidarbha, and Chammaka, four miles south east of Elichpur in the Amaraoti District. In the Barhut inscriptions there is a reference to Ჹ첹ṭa. The Sabhāparva of the Great Epic mentions Ჹ첹ṭa and Ჹ첹ṭapura as two places in the south conquered by Sahadeva. If Ჹ첹ṭa be the same as Bhoja or Bhojya of the Purāṇas, then it must be a country of the Vindhya region.
The expression Daṇḍakyabhoja in the Brāhmaṇas may indicate that the Ჹ첹ṭa was either included within or within the reach of Daṇḍaka. It is clear from the Mahābhārata list that Ჹ첹ṭa (identical with Elichpur) was distinct from Ჹ첹ṭapura or Bhojapura, the second capital of Vidarbha (modern Berar). In the Khila Harivaṃsa (cf. Viṣṇu Purāṇa) Ჹ첹ṭa is expressly identified with Vidarbha.

The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम� (ṃsṛt), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
