Jaitrāyaṇa Saho-jit is apparently in the Kāṭhaka Saṃhitā¹ the name of a prince who celebrated the Rājasūya, or ‘royal consecration.’ Von Schroeder² quotes in support of Jaitrāyaṇa as a proper name the derivative Jaitrāyaṇi, ‘descendant of Jaitra,’ formed according to the Gaṇa \*karṇādi\*, which is referred to by Pāṇini;³ but it should be noted that in the parallel passage of the Kapiṣṭhala Saṃhitā⁴ the reading is different, and no proper personal name appears, the subject being Indra, the god. This reading seems much more probable, for the verse should be general, and suit every king performing the rite.
