He is a central character in the Indian epic Ramayana and  its various versions. He also finds mentions in several other texts, including Mahabharata,  the various Puranas and some Jain texts. A vanara (monkey-like humanoid),  Hanuman participated in Rama's war against the demon king Ravana. Several texts  also present him as an incarnation of Lord Shiva. He is the son of Vayu, who according  to several stories, played a role in his birth. The Sanskrit texts mention several legends about how Hanuman got his name.  One legend is that Indra, the king of the deities, struck Hanuman's jaw during his  childhood (see below). The child received his name from the Sanskrit words Hanu ("jaw") and -man  (or -mant, "prominent" or "disfigured"). The name thus means "one with prominent or disfigured jaw".  Another theory says the name derives from the Sanskrit words Han ("killed" or "destroyed") and maana  (pride); the name implies "one whose pride was destroyed". Some Jain texts mention that  Hanuman spent his childhood on an island called Hanuruha, which is the origin of his name. Condition: New.
