Vedic Reference
English
Methi is found in the Atharvaveda^1 denoting ‘post.’ The
word is also found in the marriage ritual, ^2 when the sense is,
according to the St. Petersburg Dictionary, a post to support
the pole of a chariot. In one passage of the Rigveda it is
perhaps used of posts forming a palisade.^3 In the Pañcaviṃśa
Brāhmaṇa^4 it appears in the form of Methī to denote the post
to which the sacrificial cow is tied. The word is very variously
spelt, Medhi and Meṭhī also being found.
