### [v2.c4.s9.99](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s9.99)

Saciva ‘companion,’ ‘attendant’ (from sac, ‘follow’), later a common word for the comrade of a king, his minister, is found in Vedic literature in the Aitareya Brāhmaṇa (iii. 20, 1), where it is used by Indra of the Maruts. It seems to correspond in sense to the German comes or the English gesith.¹
