existed.

that

Kṣatra,

in

the

general

sense

of

‘dominion,

‘rule,

‘power,

as

exercised

by

gods

and

men,

occurs

frequently

from

the

Rigveda^1

onwards.

The

word

is

also

found

in

the

concrete

sense

of

‘rulers’

in

the

Rigveda^2

and

later

^3

but

in

no

case

does

it

in

the

Rigveda

certainly^4

mean

what

it

regularly

denotes

in

the

later

the

ruling

class

as

opposed

to

the

priests

(

),

the

(
