apikakṣya Tatpur. n. (-kṣyam) (ved.) A ligature or bandage

for rejoining with the kakṣa (which word seems to mean in

this case, shoulder) scil. the head. This word occurs in

the Ṛgv. I. 117. 22., where the mystic science given by Da-

dhyach to the Aśvins as a reward for having replaced his

head, when it was cut off, with a horse's head, is called

or likened to, a bandage, because, as Sāyaṇa interprets,

it became the means by which the cut-off head was rejoined

with the shoulder part. E. api and kakṣya.
