v2.c4.s5.368
Ruṣatī in one passage of the Rigveda¹ denotes, according to Ludwig,² a maiden who was married to Śyāva. On the other hand, Roth³ treats the word as *ruśatī*, ‘white,’ and *ruśatīm* seems clearly to be the reading of the text. It is doubtful what the meaning is, and whether Śyāva is a proper name at all.⁴
