Possibly influenced by behemoth.\nThe current Mansi word could mean \"earth stag\" ма̄хар (māhar), from Northern Mansi ма̄ (mā, “earth”) and ха̄р (hār, “stag”). Adjectival use was popularized in the early 1800s by references to the Cheshire Mammoth Cheese presented to American paleontologist and president Thomas Jefferson.",
