All i know with my brief scent of that place is that, the pandavas and kouravas hail from kuru clan and hence that shetra is called kurushetra meaning land of kurus.
It was also called dharmashetra ( meaning land of righteousness) because the war was against injustice meted out to pandavas and it also resulted in the 'philosophy of karma'.

Idhu kelvignanamdhaan. Thavaru irundhaal mannikkavum.
