Agara Lake missing from an old map edit

Agara Lake is not represented on this map. "Agara" is written and there is a mark representing a "village site", I assume this would be for the village Agara. Madiwala Lake can be seen and there is a connection between Madiwala Lake and Bellandur Lake. But why is Agara lake not represented on this map? Was the map made a time when the lake was dry? There are sources in the article saying that Agara goes back to 8-9th centuries.

Georeferencing a map edit

On this map Agara Lake covers what is present day Bellandur Lake when georeferenced. What does this mean? That Bellandur Lake was once known as Agara Lake? It would be a good idea to leave this map out from the article until something can reference this.
