Vedic Reference
EnglishSīra, ‘plough, ’ is mentioned in the Rigveda, ^1 and often later.^2
It was large and heavy, as is shown by the fact that six oxen, ^3
or eight, ^4 or twelve, ^5 or even twenty-four, ^6 were used to drag it.
The animals which drew the plough were oxen, which were, no
doubt, yoked and harnessed with traces.^7 The ox was guided
by the Aṣṭrā, or ‘goad, ’ of the ploughman (cf. Vaiśya).^8 Little
is known of the parts of the plough. See Lāṅgala and Phāla.

and (of the ox in the Mudgala story)
in x. 102, 8. It may denote the fastening
of the ox to the yoke rather than to
the plough by traces.
