v2.c4.s9.1139

⁴ In the Kātyāyana Śrauta Sūtra, i. 1, 12; Āpastamba Śrauta Sūtra, ix. 14, 12, is found Niṣāda-sthapati; perhaps ‘governor of Niṣādas.’ But it may also mean (cf. Weber, Indische Studien, i, 207, n.) a Niṣāda as a Sthapati; thus, little can be deduced from this passage in particular. Eggeling, Sacred Books of the East, 41, 111, renders it ‘governor.’ Cf. also St. Petersburg Dictionary, s.v., and Aupoditi.
