Mujavat

MuzhTagh Ata, near Tajikistan

तेना॑व॒सेन॑ प॒रो मूज॑व॒तो ऽती॒ह्य्,
अव॑तत-धन्वा॒ पिना॑क-हस्त॒ᳵ कृत्ति॑वासाः ॥
TS 1.8.6

With it for food, do thou go away beyond the Mujavants.With unstrung bow, thy club in thy hand, clad in skins.

the Ṛgveda mentions the mountain Mūjavant (“Having Mūja”), from where the best soma comes. A Muža tribe is also found in the Avesta in an eastern area that has Vedic-like names. The name seems to survive as the impressive 7,549-meter-high Muzh Tagh Ata Mountain in the Kirghiz and Sariqoli (Saka) lands of southwestern Xinjiang.
