History of Mahabubabad District
The town is situated on the Pakala River, which is one of the rivers of Krishna's tributaries. It is renowned for its permanent historical and cultural significance. Scheduled tribes (STs) inhabit the preponderance of villages and hamlets, including the town. The tribe's name is Lambadi. Thus, most of the Town's inhabitants will also speak Lambadi or Banjara, two distinct tribal languages. This language is among those officially recognised by the Indian government. This language has no written form and is only maintained orally.
Mahabubabad is derived from Manukota, and Manukota is derived from Mranukota. "Mranu" means "Tree", and "Kota" means "Fort" in Telugu. It translates to "a fort made of trees" in English. Historically, Manukota was surrounded by dense forest resembling a fort. Manukota was later spelt as Manukota. Manukota altered its name to Mahabubabad whenever the Nizam ruler Mahabub Ali Khan visited the city. Mahabub is a member of Nizam's administration. He once arrived in Manukota before Independence and lodged at a location called "Shikarkhana" outside of town. Due to the passage of time, Manukota's name was altered to Mahabubabad.
