Vedic Index of Names and Subjects v1.c3.244

v1.c3.244

Roth⁸ distinguishes three Atithigvas—the Atithigva Divodāsa, the enemy of Parṇaya and Karañja, and the enemy of Tūrvayāṇa. But the various passages can be reconciled, especially if it is admitted that Atithigva Divodāsa was already an ancient hero in the earliest hymns, and was becoming almost mythical.
