Virāṭana-koṭe another name for Hāngal, an ancient locality where the Kadamba kings (r. 12the century A.D.) once ruled.—The Kadamba kings of Hāngal had the hereditary right to rule the Panuṃgal or Hānuṃgāl district, which consisted of live hundred villages. And their capital was Hāngal itself, which is mentioned in records by the appellations of Pānthīpura, Vairāṭapura, Virāṭana-koṭe, and Virāṭanagara, as well as by the ancient name from which the modern name is derived. they sometimes ruled also the Banavāsi province; but the numerous instances in which that province was under the government of the members of other feudatory families and of ordinary officials, disprove any hereditary right on their part to that territory
