to me ma~NgalasUtra seems to be either SI in origin, or tradition somehow preserved only here and lost out in rest of the AryAvarta, since it is not as prevalent elsewhere, and even where it is, like in North, it certainly does not have the same stature within the symbolisms, that it enjoys in the south. also dont recall coming across its mention in sources, though I could be wrong.
