c11.s1.65

We expressed above our doubt that the Krivis of ancient time alone, without admixture of other elements, are to be set down as being the same with the Pañcâla: now we have found bands of the Turvaça youth actively engaged in the offering of a Pañcâla king. Thus the conjecture is justified that we are to look to find in the people of the Pañcâlas, of the stock of the Rik Samhitâ, the Turvaças also as well as the Krivis. The union of the Turvaças, frequently with the Yadus, and occasionally with the Matsyas (Rv. vii, 18, 6), falls in completely with this conjecture.
