Vedic Reference
English
Paijavana, ‘descendant of Pijavana, ’ is the patronymic of
Sudās.^1 It seems most probable that Pijavana intervened in
the line of succession between Divodāsa and Sudās, because
the two kings have, according to tradition, quite different
Purohitas, the former being served by the Bharadvājas as his
priests, the latter by Vasiṣṭha and Viśvāmitra
^2 this is more
natural if they were divided by a period of time than if they had
been, as is usually supposed, father and son. Geldner, ^3 how-
ever, identifies Divodāsa and Pijavana.
