A sacred karst spring supposedly fed by many insurgences / sinks in »the hills« (no name mentioned) is reported (note 1) from »Naranag« (better: Naran Nag), a sacred Hindu place situated (STRASSER 1993: 363) about 8 km east of »Wangath« (note 2) and at the foot of the Bhuteshvar spur of the Haramukuta peak (note 3).
