Intro[edit]

While cleaning up this article, I have been having trouble understanding the intended meaning of this sentence: "The name is derived from the ancient name, Mahisawada ("the ancient Indian epic, The Mahabarata. Part of the story takes place in Mahishapuram")." I take it to mean that the present name (Banswada) is derivative of an older name (Mahisawada), and that this is in some way associated with the other similar name given (Mahishapuram) -- and that this final place is the setting for parts of the epic (Mahabarata). I may very well be completely wrong. I hope that perhaps someone with some knowledge of the Mahabarata may be able to parse that sentence and rewrite it in clearer language.

I got here from WP:IN. While I am not sure that the etymology makes sense (given that there are no sources), your interpretation makes sense to me. Zuggernaut (talk) 03:10, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
