“List of Rigvedic tribes”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The tribes mentioned in the Rigveda are described as semi-nomadic pastoralists.^[1] During the Rigvedic period, they formed a warrior society, engaging in endemic warfare and cattle raids ("{{IAST|gaviṣṭi}}") among themselves and against their enemies, the "Dasyu" or Dasa.^[2] When not on the move, they were subdivided into temporary tribal settlements (vish, viś) composed of several villages, and each village was composed of several families.^[3] These settlements were headed by a tribal chief (raja, rājan) assisted by warriors (kshatra) and a priestly caste (brahma).^[4]

List of tribes

Alina people (RV 7.18.7) - They were probably one of the tribes defeated by Sudas at the Dasarajna,^&91;5&93;{{rp|I 39}} and it has been suggested that they lived to the north-east of Nurestan, because much later, in the 7th century CE, the land was mentioned by the Chinese pilgrim Xuanzang.^&91;5&93;{{rp|I 39}}

Anu is a Vedic Sanskrit term for one of the 5 major tribes in the Rigveda, RV 1.108.8, RV 8.10.5 (both times listed together with the Druhyu) and, much later also in the Mahabharata.^&91;5&93; In the late Vedic period, one of the Anu kings, King Anga, is mentioned as a "chakravartin" (AB 8.22). Ānava, the vrddhi derivation of Anu, is the name of a ruler in the Rigvedic account of the Battle of the Ten Kings (7.18.13) and at 8.4.1 with the Turvaśa (tribe). The meaning ánu "living, human" (Naighantu) cannot be substantiated for the Rigveda ^&91;6&93; and may have been derived from the tribal name.

Āyu^&91;7&93;

Bhajeratha^&91;8&93;

Bhalanas - The Bhalanas were one of the tribes that fought against Sudas in the Dasarajna battle. Some scholars have argued that the Bhalanas lived in Eastern Afghanistan Kabulistan, and that the Bolan Pass derives its name from the Bhalanas.^&91;5&93;^&91;5&93;

Bharatas - The Bharatas are an Aryan tribe mentioned in the Rigveda, especially in Mandala 3 attributed to the Bharata sage Vishvamitra and in and Mandala 7.^&91;9&93; Bharatá is also used as a name of Agni (literally, "to be maintained", viz. the fire having to be kept alive by the care of men), and as a name of Rudra in RV 2.36.8. In one of the "river hymns" RV 3.33, the entire Bharata tribe is described as crossing over, with their chariots and wagons, at the confluence of the Vipash (Beas) and Shutudri (Satlej). Hymns by Vasistha in Mandala 7 (7.18 etc.) mention the Bharatas as the protagonists in the Battle of the Ten Kings, where they are on the winning side. They appear to have been successful in the early power-struggles between the various Aryan and non-Aryan tribes so that they continue to dominate in post-Rigvedic texts, and later in the (Epic) tradition, the Mahābhārata, the eponymous ancestor becomes Bharata Chakravartin, conqueror of 'all of India', and his tribe and kingdom is called Bhārata. "Bhārata" today is the official name of the Republic of India (see also Etymology of India).

Bhrigus^&91;10&93;

Chedi^&91;11&93;

Dasa (dāsa, 'servant')^&91;12&93;

Dasyu (Iranian: Dahyu, mentioned in Latin as: Dahae, in Greek as: Daai)^&91;12&93;

{{IAST|Dṛbhīka}}^&91;13&93;

Druhyus - The Druhyu were a people of Vedic India. They are mentioned in the Rigveda,^&91;14&93; usually together with the Anu tribe.^&91;15&93; Some early scholars have placed them in the northwestern region.^&91;5&93;{{rp|I 395}} The later texts, the Epic and the Puranas, locate them in the "north", that is, in Gandhara, Aratta and Setu. (Vishnu Purana IV.17) The Druhyus were driven out of the land of the seven rivers, and their next king, Gandhara, settled in a north-western region which became known as Gandhāra. The sons of the later Druhyu king Pracetas too settle in the "northern" (udīcya) region (Bhagavata 9.23.15-16; Visnu 4.17.5; Vayu 99.11-12; Brahmanda 3.74.11-12 and Matsya 48.9.). Recently, some writers^&91;16&93; have ahistorically asserted that the Druhyu are the ancestors of the Iranian, Greek or European peoples, or of the Celtic Druid class.^&91;17&93; The word Druid (Gallic Celtic druides), however, is derived from Proto-Indo-European *weyd- "to see, to know' ^&91;18&93; It has also been alleged that the Rg Veda and the Puranas describe this tribe as migrating North,.^&91;16&93;^&91;17&93;

Gandhari^&91;19&93;

{{IAST|Guṅgu}}^&91;20&93;

Ikshvaku dynasty^&91;21&93;

Krivi^&91;22&93;

{{IAST|Kīkaṭa}}^&91;23&93;

Kuru^&91;9&93;

Mahīna^&91;24&93;

{{IAST|Malankhara}}^&91;25&93;

Maujavant^&91;26&93;

Matsya^&91;27&93;

{{IAST|Nahuṣa}}^&91;28&93;

Paktha.^&91;29&93;

Panis (Iranian Parni?)

Pārāvata

Parsu (Parśu) - The Parsus have been connected with the Persians^&91;30&93; This is based on the evidence of an Assyrian inscription from 844 BC referring to the Persians as Parshu, and the Behistun Inscription of Darius I of Persia referring to Parsa as the home of the Persians.^&91;31&93;

Puru (Pūru)

Ruśama

Sārasvata

Srñjaya

Tritsu The Tritsus are a sub-group of the Puru who are distinct from the Bharatas mentioned in Mandala 7 of the Rigveda (in hymns 18, 33 and 83). Under king Sudas they defeated the confederation of ten kings with the help of the Bharatas at the Battle of the Ten Kings.

Turvasa (Turvaśa)

Yadu
