The ancient ''[[Coastal South West India|Sapta Konkan]]'' was a larger geographical area that extended from [[Gujarat]] to [[Kerala]] and included the whole region of coastal Maharashtra and [[Karavali|coastal Karnataka]].<ref name="history" /> However, this segment overlaps the Konkan and [[Malabar coast]] continuum; and usually corresponds to the southernmost and northernmost stretches of these locales respectively.
== Etymology ==
-According to the ''[[Sahyadrikhanda]]'' of the ''[[Skanda Purana]]'', [[Parashurama]] threw his axe into the sea and commanded the Sea God to recede up to the point where his axe landed. The new piece of land thus recovered came to be known as ''Saptah-Konkana'', meaning "piece of earth", "corner of earth", or "piece of corner", derived from [[Sanskrit]] words: ''koṇa'' ({{lang|kok|कोण}}, corner) + ''kaṇa'' ({{lang|kok|कण}}, piece).<ref name="skanda">{{cite book |title=Shree Scanda Puran (Sayadri Khandha) |editor-last=Shastri Gaytonde |editor-first=Gajanan |language=mr |publisher=Shree Katyani Publication |publication-place=Mumbai}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |title=Gomantak Prakruti ani Sanskruti |version=Part 1 |page=206 |last=Satoskar |first=B.

<p>Historically, the limits of Konkan have been flexible, and it has been known by additional names like "<a href="/enwiki/wiki/Aparanta" title="Aparanta">Aparanta</a>" and "Gomanchal", the latter being defined as the coastal area between the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Daman_Ganga_River" title="Daman Ganga River">Daman Ganga River</a> in the north and the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Gangavalli_River" title="Gangavalli River">Gangavalli River</a> in the south.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a></sup>
</p><p>The ancient <i><a href="/enwiki/wiki/Coastal_South_West_India" title="Coastal South West India">Sapta Konkan</a></i> was a larger geographical area that extended from <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Gujarat" title="Gujarat">Gujarat</a> to <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Kerala" title="Kerala">Kerala</a> and included the whole region of coastal Maharashtra and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Karavali" class="mw-redirect" title="Karavali">coastal Karnataka</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-history_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-history-1">[1]</a></sup> However, this segment overlaps the Konkan and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Malabar_coast" class="mw-redirect" title="Malabar coast">Malabar coast</a> continuum; and usually corresponds to the southernmost and northernmost stretches of these locales respectively.
