### [v1.c3.485](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.485)

Abhyā-vartin Cāyamāna appears in a Dānastuti (‘Praise of Gifts’) in the Rigveda,¹ and as conqueror of the Vṛcīvants under the leader Varaśikha. It is probable, though not absolutely certain, that he is identical with the Sṛñjaya Daivavāta, mentioned in the same hymn² as having the Turvaśas and Vṛcīvants defeated for him by Indra. In this case he would be prince (samrāj) of the Sṛñjayas. Daivavāta is mentioned elsewhere³ as a worshipper of Agni.
