In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Anūpa means “a country situated near water,’’ or “a marshy country.” It was applied to various tracts near the sea, generally in the combination sāgarānūpa, e.g., in Bengal; in or near the Pánṇya kingdom in the South; in the north and west of the peninsula of Kathiawar; and on the western coast generally; but the name was more specially applied to a tract on the west coast which constituted a kingdom in the Pāṇḍavas’ time.
Anūpa (अनूप).—A famous place in ancient India. Some scholars hold the view that Anūpa is near river Narmadā. (Sabhā Parva, Chapter 51, Verse 24).
Anūpa (अनूप).—(c)—the kingdom got by Sūta from Pṛthu. The people were Anūpas, a Vindhya tribe.*
- * Brahmāṇḍa-purāṇa II. 36. 172; 16. 65; Vāyu-purāṇa 62. 147.
Anūpā (अनूपा) refers to the name of a Lady mentioned in the Mahābhārata (cf. I.59.44, I.65). Note: The Mahābhārata (mentioning Anūpā) is a Sanskrit epic poem consisting of 100,000 ślokas (metrical verses) and is over 2000 years old.
The Purana (पुराण, 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.
Ayurveda (science of life)
Nighantu (Synonyms and Characteristics of Drugs and technical terms)
Anūpa (अनूप, “wet”) or Anūpadeśa refers to “wet land” and represents one of the three classifications of “land” (deśa), as defined in the first chapter (ānūpādi-varga) of the 13th-century Raj Nighantu or Rājanighaṇṭu (an Ayurvedic encyclopedia). Accordingly, “this type of land [viz., anūpa-deśa] is rich in water resources and a variety of fauna on its copper coloured soil, which produces rice. It is a rugged terrain, full of small hillocks with a vast expanse and its air is pleasantly cooled by numerous waterfalls. Thus, it eradicates pitta-doṣa. This land possesses cold properties. The diseases of gastro-intestinal tract and also the diseases due to kapha and vāta are common in such lands”.
Dietetics and Culinary Art (such as household cooking)
1) Ānūpa (आनूप) refers to “marshy land water” and is classified as terrestial type of water (jala) according to the 17th century Bhojanakutūhala (dravyaguṇāguṇa-kathana), and is commonly found in literature dealing with the topics of dietetics and culinary art, also known as Pākaśāstra or Pākakalā.—Different types of water (jala) and their properties are mentioned here [viz., in jala-prakaraṇa]. The water is classified into two as celestial and terrestrial ones. Terrestrial waters are classified into three [viz., marshy land water (ānūpa)].
2) Ānūpa (आनूप) or Ānūpamāmṣa also refers to the meat of animals “living in marshy lands”, according to the same Bhojanakutūhala, in the dravyaguṇāguṇa section which contains the discussions on different food articles and their dietetic effects according to the prominent Ayurvedic treatises.
Aanoop refers to certain “non-vegetarian, body-mass improving food items (brihaniya-dravya)”.—According to the study, various important factors in prevention of nutritional disorders in adolescent girls include: “rules to be followed while eating (ahara-vidhi-vidhana)”, nutritious food items, rasayana, yogasana (body postures) and pranayama (controlled breathing techniques) to improve agni (digestive strength), nidra (proper sleep). There is mention of non-vegetarian food specially Gramya, Aanoop, Audaka Maansa Rasa e.g. meat of goat, sheep, pork, chicken, fish. They are mentioned as some of the “Brihaniya Dravya (body-mass improving food items) which should be specifically added in routine diet”, in the section of “prevention of aptarpana-janya-vyadhi (under-nutritional disorders)”. Therefore, it is concluded that to prevent nutritional disorders in adolescent girls, balanced diet should be encouraged.
Unclassified Ayurveda definitions
Ānupa (आनुप, “sub-aquatic”):—One of the six types of habitats (deśa).—These geographical habitats are divided according to their bhūtas. Jāṅgala has a predominance of Vāta and Pitta. Skilled physicians should account for the nature of the habitat when treating a patient. The word is used throughout Ayurvedic (India medicine) literature such as the Caraka-saṃhitā and the Suśruta-saṃhitā.
Animals, which are generally found to frequent marshy places (Ānupas) may be divided into five groups, such as,
- the Kulachara (or, kūlacara) (frequenting the shores of pools and lakes),
- Plava (divers or swimmers),
- Koshastha (conchiferous aquatic animals such as, the molluscs etc.),
- the Padina
- and the (piscatory) Matsya.
Anūpa (अनूप) refers to “(water from) swamps”, as mentioned in verse 5.13-14 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—Accordingly, “[...] as concerns (water from) wells, ponds [viz., anūpa: jāṅgalānūpaśailataḥ], etc., one should know (if it comes) from jungle, swamp, or rock. No water or, in case of incapability, little (is) to be drunk by those suffering from weak digestion and visceral induration (and) by those suffering from jaundice, abdominal swellings, diarrhea, hemorrhoids, dysentery, and cutaneous swellings. Except in autumn and summer, even a healthy man shall drink only little”.
Ānūpa (आनूप):—Marshy lands
Āyurveda (आयुर्वेद, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of Āyurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.
Shyanika-shastra (the science of Hawking and Hunting)
Anūpa (अनूप) or Sānūpa refers to “marshy lands” (suitable for tracking footprints), according to the Śyainika-śāstra: a Sanskrit treatise dealing with the divisions and benefits of Hunting and Hawking, written by Rājā Rudradeva (or Candradeva) in possibly the 13th century.—Accordingly, “Hunting by the observation of footprints (padaprekṣā) is that in which animals are tracked by their footprints and killed. It is of two kinds: [śvapadaprekṣikā and pūrvaśabdita] [...] These two kinds of hunting succeed greatly in sandy deserts or in marshy lands (sa-anūpa) in the rainy season and in others with the greatest trouble”.
Shyanika-shastra (श्यैनिकशास्त्र, śyainikaśāstra) deals with ancient Indian skill of hawking/falconry (one of the ways of hunting) which were laid down in a systematic manner in various Sanskrit treatises. It also explains the philosophy behind how the pleasures derived from sense-experience could lead the way to liberation.
India history and geography
Anupa or Anupala is one of the exogamous septs (divisions) among the Komatis (a trading caste of the Madras Presidency). Anupa refers to the plant Anupala (Dolichos Lablab). The Komatis are said to have originally lived, and still live in large numbers on the banks of the Godavari river. One of the local names thereof is Gomati or Gomti, and the Sanskrit Gomati would, in Telugu, become corrupted into Komati. The sub-divisions are split up into septs (viz., Anupa), which are of a strictly exogamous character.
Anūpa is the name of a land granted by king Subhikṣa (for the merit and fame of his parents and himself) as recorded in the “Plate of Subhikṣarājadeva” (10th century A.D.). It was situated within the jurisdiction of Varoṣikā-grāma, belonging to Nāhallāka and others measuring nine Droṇavāpas. Anūpa was dedicated to the goddess Nārāyaṇa-bhaṭṭāraka (Nārāyaṇa) who is said to have been installed on the bank of the Viṣṇugaṅgā.
This inscribed copper plate (mentioning Anūpa) is preserved in the temple of Yogabadarī (one of the Pañcabadarī) at Pāṇḍukeśvar (Pāṇḍukeśvara). It records the grant of many pieces of land, situated in the viṣayas (districts) of Ṭaṅgaṇāpura and Antaraṅga made by king Subhikṣa in favour of three deities.
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.

Anupa (अनुप) in the Sanskrit language is related to the Prakrit words: Aṇuya, Aṇūve, Āṇūga.
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), 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.
