One of the enemies of Sudās and the Tftsu- Bharatas, was defeated by the former in the Yamunā (Jumna), apparently in a second conflict fought after the battle of the ten kings, in which Sudās successfully defended his western frontier against the confederate foes. The Ajas, śigrus, and Yakçus, who are mentioned as also defeated, may have been united under his leadership if he was a king ; or the Bhedas may have been a separate people, as Roth thinks. Hopkins’ opinion that the defeat was on the Paruṣṇī, Yamunā being another name of that stream, is most improbable; nor is the view that Bheda was one of the ten kings essential. Cf. Turvaśa.
Is mentioned in the Atharvaveda as having come to a bad end because he refused a cow (vaiā) to Indra when asked for it. That he is different from the preceding Bheda, as Roth assumes, is not certain. Indeed, it may very well be that his defeat led to his being chosen as the representative of the evil end of the wicked man. Moreover, the irreligious character of Bheda may be ascribed to his being a leader of non-Aryan folk, if the Ajas and Sigrus, with whom in the Rigveda he is connected or associated were, as is possible, though by no means certain, un-Aryan tribes of totemists.
