Kīkaṭa was an ancient Indian kingdom in what is now India, mentioned in the Vedas. A section in the Rigveda (RV 3.53.14) refers to the Kīkaṭas, with its ruler Pramangada. Some scholars have placed them in Bihar (Magadha) because Kikata is used as synonym for Magadha in the later texts; while other scholars dispute this and point to evidence for a more western location, in the area approximately south of Kurukshetra (see ). Like the Magadhas in the Atharvaveda, the Rigveda speaks of the Kikatas as a hostile tribe, living on the borders of Vedic India, who did not perform Vedic rituals.
