Cittakuṭa untranslated

Cittakuṭa (Citrakūṭa). A mountain in Himavā, one of the five ranges round Anotatta. It is composed of all kinds of precious metals (Snp­a.ii.437; AN­a.ii.759; Ud­a.300; Ap.i.50, 414; Paṭis-a.15; Vsm.650). It is famed as the abode of golden geese living in a golden cave (Kañcanaguhā) on the top of the mountain, sometimes as many as ninety thousand in number (e.g., Ja.ii.107; iii.208, 247; iv.424, etc). There also the Dhattaraṭṭha geese lived (Ja.v.337).

The name is sometimes (e.g., Ja.iv.212; v.338) spelt Citrakūṭa. It is generally identified with Kāmptanāthgiri in Bundelkhand, an isolated hill on the Paisunī or Mandākinī River. Law: Geography of Early Buddhism p.40.
