Vedic Reference
EnglishGo-mṛga, a species of ox, now called Gayal (Bos gavaeus), is
mentioned in the list of victims at the Aśvamedha, or horse
sacrifice, in the Yajurveda Saṃhitās^1 and Brāhmaṇas.^2 In the
Taittirīya Saṃhitā^3 it is declared to be neither a wild nor a
tame animal
this presumably means that it was semi-
domesticated, or perhaps that it was both tamed and found
wild. With the name of this animal may be compared the
Mṛga Mahiṣa, which is clearly mentioned as wild in the
Rigveda.^4 See also Gayava.
