v1.c3.s18.693

Dyotana is, according to Sāyaṇa, the name of a prince in the Rigveda.¹ This is probably correct, though the word may also² be interpreted as denoting ‘glorification’; but it is not clear what relation existed between Dyotana and the other persons mentioned in the same passage, Vetasu, Daśoṇi, Tūtuji, and Tugra.
