Skt. pīṭha): pṛthivī tasya pī° Kv 15.9 (misprinted pīthikā); this is the definition of pw, but perhaps footstool is at least equally probable; (2) in Kv 32.18 perh. error for piṭakā or piṭikā = Skt. piṭaka, basket, in lit. sense (cf. pīṭhaka): pīṭhikām upagṛhya, said of Rāma (Viṣṇu) masquerading as a brahman dwarf in mendicant's garb; pīṭhikā surely means something which an ascetic might carry (hardly footstool!).
