Aupoditi, ‘descendant of Upodita,’ is the patronymic applied in the Taittirīya Saṃhitā¹ to Tumiñja, and in the Baudhāyana Śrauta Sūtra² to Gaupālāyana, son of Vyāghrapad, Sthapati (‘general’) of the Kurus. In the form of Aupoditeya, a metronymic from Upoditā, the name is found in the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa,³ where the Kāṇva text calls him Tumiñja Aupoditeya Vaiyāghrapadya.
