Marcos Maniacs

Hi to all.

My question. Can ereryone tell me the meaning of the name " Mantara 
and Mantula". I can not find a subscription of the names in my 
translationbook.

thanks
Wolfgang

I think that's generally true, but always believed the Mantula named 
was used because it ended the same way as Taran-tula (an eight legged 
thing) and the model was the first 8 cylinder Marcos?

Mantara, I've no idea on. Mantaray was I guess just a variation on 
Mantara to distinguish the shape and Mantis, of course, is a much 
used Marcos name.

Cheers.

Mark

In the meantime i have have found the meaning of " Mantula" 
It is a new word between TARANTULA, a spider and MANTIS, an insect.
In german (Gottesanbeterin) und (Tarantel)
But it is much more interested for me to know the meaning of Mantara, 
because i have one.

thanks
Wolfgang
