(mahAdeva, mahAdeva)
Mahādeva, (1)¦ n. of a king, of the race of Mahāsaṃ- mata and corresp. to Pali Makhādeva(!): Mvy 3582; MSV i.111.19 ff.; (2) n. of a prince, son of Mahāratha and [Page423-a+ 71] brother of Mahāsattva: Suv 206.12; 225.13 ff.; (3) n. of a god: Gv 218.6 ff.; perhaps understood as the same as Skt. Mahādeva (Śiva); but his residence is Dvāravatī (q.v.), and he has four arms (219.1); both things suggest Kṛṣṇa.
