Type of mace from India
A mudgar () or mudgara is a type of "gada" (mace) from India, and it is generally considered to be made of wood, but can also be made of iron. 
Usage.
The "mudgar" appears is ancient Indian sculptures, where it is commonly held by Yaksha deities, known as mudgarpani (; mudgar-holders).
An ancient Jain story named the "Antagadadasao" tell the story of a man named Ajjunaka who was worshipping the image of the "Yaksa who held a mace", when he was attacked by five bandits, an event which shook his devotion to the Yashka. Afterwards the Yaksa possessed Ajjunaka, giving him the strength to kill the five bandits.
Nowadays, for training purposes when using Indian clubs, one or two wooden gada ("mudgar"), reaching up to 70 kilograms in weight, can be used: they can be swung behind the back in several different ways; this is particularly useful for building grip strength and shoulder endurance.
