Vedic Reference
English
Kama-dyū appears once in the Rigveda^1 as the wife of
Vimada. She is probably identical with the ‘maiden’ (yoṣā)
of Purumitra, no doubt his daughter. She is elsewhere^2
referred to in connexion with Vimada, who appears to have
taken her for his bride against the will of her father.
