Vedic Reference

English

 Śvaśura from the Rigveda onwards^1 denotes the ‘father-in-
law’ of the wife
 not till the Sūtra period does it include the
‘father-in-law’ of the husband.^2 The daughter-in-law (Snuṣā), 
in the normal case when the father-in-law was the head of the
family to which her husband belonged in fact as well as in age, 
was bound to pay him all respect.^3 When the old man had
ceased to exercise control,  she became mistress (samrājñī)
over him and his wife.^4 In the plural^5 the word denotes the
‘parents-in-law.’
1) x. 28,  1
 85,  46
 95,  4
 Av. viii. 6, 
24
 xiv. 2,  26,  etc.
2) Pāraskara Gṛhya Sūtra,  iii. 10,  46.
3) See Rv. x. 95,  4
 Av. viii. 6,  24
Maitrāyaṇī Saṃhitā,  ii. 4,  2
 Kāṭhaka
Saṃhitā,  xii. 12 (Indische Studien,  5, 
260)
 Aitareya Brāhmaṇa,  iii. 22,  7.
So in Av. xiv. 2,  26,  the daughter-in-law
is to be ‘helpful’ to the father-in-law.
4) Rv. x. 85,  46. See Pati.
5) Rv. x. 95,  12
 Av. xiv. 2,  27
Kāṭhaka Saṃhitā,  loc. cit. Or it may
be a plural majestatis,  but not a sign
of polyandry.

Verwandtschaftsnamen,  515,  516.
