Note 5 — VI. PRINCE JĪVAKA AS THE KING OF PHYSICIANS.1

Anton Schiefner translation

Literally “having lizard-arrow-spokes” [Eidechsen-Pfeil-Speichen]. There is perhaps a connection between godhana, a kind of arrow with a broad point, and godhā, “an iguana, a very large sort of lizard” (Childers, p. 149).—S. ↑

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
