Vedic Reference
English
Kakuha, a word occurring several times in the Rigveda, ^1 is
understood by Roth^2 to designate part of a chariot, perhaps the
seat. Ludwig, ^3 again, regards it in one passage^4 as the proper
name of a Yādava prince who took spoil from Tirindira, the
Parśu, but this view is hardly probable.^5 It is, on the whole,
most likely that the word always means ‘chief, ’ ‘pre-eminent, ’
being applied as an epithet to horses, chariots, princes, etc.^6
This is the only sense given by Grassmann, ^7 and later adopted
by Roth.^8
