The precise location Mūtibas is yet uncertain. The Roman author Pliny located them between the "Modogalingae," who lived on a large island in the Gaṅgā, and the Āndhras, and associates them with the Molindae (Pulindas) and the Uberae (Savaras).[2]
The name Mūcīpa, by which the Śāṅkhāyana Śrauta Sūtra calls the Mūtibas, might be connected to the name of the Musi river.[2]
The Mūtibas already existed as a tribe during the time of the Brāhmaṇas.[1]
