1. From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naga 110917
Nāga (Skt: नाग, nāgá, Bur:
{na.ga:};
Javanese: någå, Khmer: នាគ neak, Thai:
นาค
nak, Chinese: 那伽, Tibetan:
ཀླུ་) is the Sanskrit and Pāli word for a deity or class of entity or being,
taking the form of a very great snake
— specifically the King Cobra, found in Hinduism and Buddhism. The use of
the term nāga is often ambiguous, as the word may also refer, in similar
contexts, to one of several human tribes known as or nicknamed "Nāgas"; to
elephants; and to ordinary snakes, particularly the King Cobra and the
Indian
Cobra, the latter of which is still called nāg in Hindi and other
languages of India. A female nāga is a nāgī or nāginī.

You'll the Naga mentioned in chapter 07 The Cult of Naga. You'll also read my note on King Duttabaung, king of the Pyu and his ocean-going boat propelled by the action of Naga scales (which probably used the hydro-dynamic drive - factual chk?) and manned by Naga sailors.
4. Buddha's birth story: Vidhurapandita Jātaka (No.545), http://www.palikanon.com/english/pali_names/vy/vidhurapandita_jat_545.htm 110917
v.l. Vidhūrapandita. Four kings, 1.
Dhanañjaya Korabba, king of
Indapatta
[human], 2.
Sakka , king of the Deva [god], 3.
Varuna,
the Nāga
king [non-human
{na.ga:},
4.
Venateyya, king of the Supannas [non-human being], having taken the uposatha-vows,
meet together in a garden and there have a dispute as to which of them is the
most virtuous. [UKT ¶]
They cannot decide among themselves and agree, therefore, to refer the matter to Dhanañjaya's minister, Vidhurapandita (the Bodhisatta). The minister listens to the claims of each and then declares that all are equal; their virtues are like the spokes of a wheel. They are pleased, and Sakka gives the minister a silk robe, Varuna a jewel [Naga living under the sea are guardians of treasures], the Supanna king a golden garland, and Dhanañjaya one thousand cows.
Vimalā, Varuna's wife [Naga queen], hearing from her husband of Vidhura's wisdom, is so enchanted that she yearns to see him, and in order to do so feigns illness, and says that she must have Vidhura's heart. [UKT ¶]
Varuna's daughter, Irandatī [Naga princess], is offered to anyone who can get possession of Vidhura's heart, and the Yakkha Punnaka, nephew of Vessavana [whom the Hindus would describe as 'demon'], who sees her and is fascinated by her beauty, accepts the condition. He obtains Vessavana's consent by a ruse and visits Dhanañjaya's court. There he challenges the [human] king to a game of dice, giving his name as Kaccāyana, and offers as stake his wonderful steed and all seeing gem, provided the king will offer Vidhura as his. Dhanañaya agrees, plays and loses.
UKT: The game of dice which was so important in Mahabharatta, and the name of minister involved Vidhura is the source of confusion of the two stories, one from Hinduism and the other from Buddhism. - UKT110917
Vidhura agrees to go with Punnaka; the king asks him questions regarding the householder's life for his own guidance, and Vidhura is given three days' leave to visit his family. Having taken leave of them, he goes with Punnaka. On the way Punnaka tries in vain to kill him by frightening him. [See painting from from Burmese-Buddhist temple, Penang, Malaysia, http://www.dhammikarama.org/ 110917]. [UKT ¶]
When Vidhura discovers Punnaka's intention, he preaches to him as he sits on the top of the Kālapabbata, and the Yakkha ['demon'] is so moved that he offers to take Vidhura back to Indapatta. But in spite of his protestations, Vidhura insists on going on to the Nāga world. They arrive in Varuna's abode; Vidhura preaches first to Varuna and then to Vimalā. They are both delighted, and Punnaka wins the hand of Irandatī. In his great joy Punnaka gives Vidhura his marvellous jewel and takes him back to Indapatta. There Vidhura relates his adventures and gives the jewel to the king. A festival lasting one month is held in honour of Vidhura's return.
The story was related in reference to the Buddha's wisdom. Vidhura's chief wife, Anujjā, is identified with Rāhulamātā; his eldest son, Dhammapāla, with Rāhula; Varuna with Sāriputta; the Supanna king with Moggallāna; Sakka with Anuruddha, and Dhanañjaya with Ananda (J.vi.255-329).
The Jātaka is also referred to as the Punnaka Jātaka (E.g., J.iv.14, 182).
Four scenes from the Jātaka are found on the Bharhut Tope. Cunningham, Bharhut, p.82.
