This accords with the fact that rice cultivation seems hardly known in the Rigveda.³ Husked (kaṇa) and unhusked (akaṇa) rice is referred to in the Taittirīya Saṃhitā.⁴ - [Previous: v1.c3.s17.61](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17.61) - [Next: v1.c3.s17.63](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17.63) - [Up: v1.c3.s17](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17.62](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s17.62) · Pramāṇa
