The Manmodi Caves are a complex of a rock-cut caves about 3 km to the south of the city of Junnar in India.[1] Other caves surrounding the city of Junnar are: Tulja Caves, Shivneri Caves and Lenyadri caves.[1]
It is thought that the caves were positioned on natural trade routes, formed by passes leading from the coast to the basaltic plateau of the Western Ghats.[1] One of the caves in Manmodi has an epigraph mentioning the Western Satrap Nahapana bearing the title of Mahakshatrapa (Great Satrap).[2]
