Ṭaṅkitamañca untranslated

Ṭaṅkitamañca. A place near Gayā. It was the residence of the Yakkha Suciloma and the Buddha once stayed there (Snp. p.47f; SN.i.206).

The Suttanipāta Commentary (Snp­a.i.301) explains that Ṭaṅkitamañca was at Gayātittha, and that it was a stone-bed (pāsāṇamañca) formed by a stone set on the top of four other stones.

The Saṁyutta Commentary (SN­a.i.232f) says it was either a house (geha) so-formed, or a long bed made with supports inserted under the legs of the bedstead and placed in the temples of the gods.
