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 - [Previous: v2.c4.s5.367](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5.367) - [Next: v2.c4.s5.369](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5.369) - [Up: v2.c4.s5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5.368](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5.368) · Pramāṇa
