Mūlasamīpa (मूलसमीप) refers to the “region of the (tail) root” (of an elephant), according to the 15th century Mātaṅgalīlā composed by Nīlakaṇṭha in 263 Sanskrit verses, dealing with elephantology in ancient India, focusing on the science of management and treatment of elephants.—[Cf. chapter 6, “on determination of measurements”]: “12. Below the flanks are the two hindquarters to be recognized; the niṣkośa at (between?) flank and back; the belly after these two; (after or behind?) these two (niṣkośas) are the two parts named the utkṛṣṭas (‘elevated parts’). 13. But the region of the tail root (puccha-mūlasamīpa) shall be (called) the pecaka. Below the throat, upon the breast, one shall recognize the antarmaṇi, fastened at the joint of the neck”
