v1.c3.s17.358

Turvīti is mentioned several times in the Rigveda, both in association with Vayya¹ and alone.² In three passages³ reference is made to Indra aiding him over a flood. Ludwig⁴ has conjectured that he was king of the Turvaśas and Yadus. But there is no sufficient evidence for this view, though presumably he was of the Turvaśa tribe.
