The river Tāpī is also known as Tāpti. The river’s source is a mountain called Multāi, and the river flows westward through the state of Saurāṣṭra and into the Arabian Sea.

Māhiṣmatī-pura (Maheshwar) is mentioned in Mahābhārata in connection with Sahadeva’s victory. Sahadeva, the youngest brother of the Pāṇḍavas, conquered that part of the country. As stated in the Mahābhārata:

<div class="quote_verse">
:tato ratnāny upādāya purīṁ māhiṣmatīṁ yayau</dd><dd>tatra nīlena rājñā sa cakre yuddhaṁ nararṣabhaḥ
</div>

“After acquiring jewels, Sahadeva went to the city of Māhiṣmatī, where he fought with a king called Nīla.”
