Aritra denotes the ‘oar’ by which boats were propelled.

The Rigveda¹ and the Vājasaneyi Saṃhitā² speak of a vessel

with a hundred oars, and a boat (nau) is said to be ‘propelled

by oars’ (aritra-paraṇa).³ In two passages of the Rigveda⁴ the

term, according to the St. Petersburg Dictionary, denotes a part

of a chariot. The rower of a boat is called aritṛ.⁵ See Nau. [Footnote] 1) i. 116, 5. [Footnote] 2) xxi. 7. [Footnote] 3) Rv. x. 101, 2. Cf. Śatapatha Brāh-
