 nakulaka,  m., 
(1) = prec. (1),  some musical instrument: Mv 〔ii.322.14〕
 〔iii.70.15〕
 〔82.5〕 (°kāṃ,  acc. pl.)
 〔270.5〕 (〔iii.70.15〕 prose,  the others vss)
(2) money-bag or purse: °ko (°kaḥ) kaṭyāṃ (〔133.23〕 adds upari) baddhas Divy 〔124.2〕
 〔128.29〕
 〔133.23〕
 MSV 〔i.241.8〕. See under (3). Hertel,  ZDMG 〔67.125〕,  states that nakula is used in this sense in Jain Skt.
(3) °kaḥ Mvy 〔6024〕,  acc. to Jap. a purse (cf. 2) made out of a mongooseʼs skin (adding that in India purses [Page288-1b] are so made). However,  Tib. glosses rgyan (ornament) ne-ḥu le (mongoose) can (having,  with),  the whole cpd. interpreted by Das as ornament made in the shape of a weaselʼs head. Not only Tib. rgyan,  which seems to mean only ornament,  or at least not purse,  but also the context supports this general sense
 it occurs in the midst of a long list of what are certainly ornaments.
