between the Arun valley and the Singalila ridge at the border to West-Bengal and Sikkim;
historically inhabited by mainly Limbu groups, therefore sometimes used synonym with Limbuvān (Pradhan 2009: 57);
other sources distinguish that Pallo Kirāta comprised the Dasa Limbuvān and 17 districts (thums), inhabited by other Kirānti groups, mainly Yakkha (Linkha 2024: 88);
