'''Mūtiba''' ([[Sanskrit]]: {{Transliteration|sa|Mūtiba}}, {{Transliteration|sa|Mūvīpa}}, and {{Transliteration|sa|Mūcīpa}}; [[Latin]] {{Transliteration|la|Modubae}}) was an ancient [[tribe]] of south-central [[South Asia]] whose existence is attested during the [[Iron Age in India|Iron Age]].{{sfn|Raychaudhuri|1953|p=92}}{{sfn|Raychaudhuri|1953|p=94}}<br />

==Location==<br />
The precise location Mūtibas is yet uncertain. The Roman author [[Pliny the Elder|Pliny]] located them between the "Modogalingae," (likely Mudgagiri or Maudgalyana, ie [[Munger]]) who lived on a large island in the [[Ganges|Gaṅgā]], and the [[Āndhra (tribe)|Āndhra]]s, and associates them with the {{Transliteration|la|Molindae}} ([[Pulinda]]s) and the {{Transliteration|la|Uberae}} ([[Sora people|Savaras]]).{{sfn|Raychaudhuri|1953|p=94}}<br />
<br />
The name {{Transliteration|sa|Mūcīpa}}, by which the {{Transliteration|sa|Śāṅkhāyana Śrauta Sūtra}} calls the Mūtibas, might be connected to the name of the [[Musi River (India)|Musi]] river.{{sfn|Raychaudhuri|1953|p=94}}<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
The Mūtibas already existed as a tribe during the time of the [[Brahmana|{{Transliteration|sa|Brāhmaṇa}}]]s.{{sfn|Raychaudhuri|1953|p=92}}<br />
