Sāṃkāśya, Saṃ°, Saṃkaśya (mss. show still other variants
= Skt. Sāṃkāśya, Saṃ°, Pali Saṃkassa), also called Devāvatāra or °taraṇa, as being the name of the city (nagara) or country (janapada) where Buddha descended from the heaven of the Trāyastriṃśa (or Trayas°
°triṃśebhyo devebhyo Av, below) to earth by a supernatural ladder (see DPPN): MSV 〔i.163.9〕
(bhagavān …) devebhyas trayastriṃśebhyo jambūdvīpaṃ Sāṃkāśye (in 13 ms. °śe) nagare Āpajjure (q.v.
no such name seems to [Page590-a] occur in Pali, but the existence of a ‘deer-park’ at Saṃkassa is mentioned, DPPN) dāve udumbaramūla iti Av 〔ii.94.8, 13〕

this is followed by the two lines cited s.v. Agnibhāṇḍa, apparently referring to a devāvataraṇa of the Buddha which occurred at some other place than Sāṃkāśya.
