From an article by Kaisa Häkkinen the appendix "oldest Uralic/Finno-
Ugric vocabulary from Uralisches etym. Wörterbuch" (not very exact)

*mäke "hügel, berg"
*mäkte "rasenhügel [grassy mound?], hügel"

No suggestion that the -t- is the inner-Finnic (??).

I also found a Skt. magha- "sacrifice" (vel sim.) but now I can't
find it.
