General definition (in Hinduism)
Source: archive.org: Vedic index of Names and SubjectsUttaramadra (उत्तरमद्र) is the name of a tribe mentioned with the Uttara Kurus in the Aitareya Brāhmaṇa as living beyond the Himālaya. Zimmer points out that in the Vaṃśa Brāhmaṇa Kāmboja Aupamanyava is a pupil of Madragāra, and thence infers that Kambojas and Madras were not far distant in space. This conclusion is perfectly reasonable in view of the probable position of the Kambojas.

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.
