Punnaka in the 8th century AD; also called Punyapur or Punyanagari, “The
City of Virtuous Deeds”
The city is built on the confluence of the three rivers Mutha, Mula and
Pavana. These Rivers were believed to have Mythic Cleansing Powers
The Rivers formed the city’s lifeline and no other city in the country can
boast of having three Rivers running through it
