⁶ Bloomfield, *Religion of the Veda*, p. 12, who places the evidence about 1600 b. c., which is too early; Hall, *Anc. Hist. of Near East*, pp. 260 ff. Cf. Darmesteter, *Ormazd et Ahriman*, pp. 7 ff.; Oldenberg, *GN.* 1915, pp. 167 ff.; von Schroeder, *Arische Religion*, i. 348 ff., who insists that Ṛta is essentially Varuṇa's possession. Carnoy (JAOS. xxxvi. 307) suggests Babylonian influence.
