The Relative Chronology of the nivids and praiṣas and the Standardisation of Vedic Ritual.
Analysis of the language and formulaics of the Vedic liturgical prose texts known as nivids and praisas reveals that they presuppose a complete, multi-lineage collection of the Rgveda, yet are linguistically more archaic than the bulk of mantras incorporated into the standarised srauta ritual.
