Tosala — The Ancient Heartland of the Daya, Mahanadi and Odisha’s Coastal Plain
The geographical lists are especially revealing because they regularly associate the Tosalas with peoples such as the Kosalans, Utkalas, Mekalas, Dasharnas and other communities connected with eastern and central India. The Markandeya and other Puranic traditions place the Tosalas among regions associated with the Vindhyan sphere, suggesting that ancient Tosala was not conceived simply as a narrow strip of beach. Its connections reached inland towards the uplands and the routes linking Odisha with Dakshina Kosala and central India.
