### [v1.c3.s1.309](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s1.309)

Āsandī-vant, ‘possessing the throne,’ is the title of the royal city of Janamejaya Pārikṣita, in which the horse, for his famous Aśvamedha, was bound. The authorities both cite a Gāthā for the fact, but they differ as to the priest who celebrated the rite. In the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa¹ he is stated to have been Indrota Daivāpa Śaunaka, but in the Aitareya² Tura Kāvaṣeya.
