Notes

  1. ^ The Bṛhat Parāśara Horāśāstra etymologizes the word as ahorātra with the first and last syllables dropped (BPHS.4.1-2). However, derivation of Sanskrit horā from ahorātra is not very likely, since it does not follow common rules of Sanskrit word formation. In ancient Greek, this word was part of common language since old times whereas in Sanskrit it can only be found as an astrological jargon.
