Is mentioned in the story of Manu told in the śatapatha Brāhmana, where it means a ‘ great fish ’ (mahā-matsya) according to the commentator. Eggeling suggests that a horned fish is meant, because in the Taittirīya Samhitā the Idā, or personified libation, is represented as a cow, and this may have brought in the idea of a horned fish in the later form of an old legend. But cf. Jasa.
