satvan	In the Rigveda and occasionally later has the sense of 'warrior'

satvant	Is the name of a people who are stated in the Aitareya Brāhmaṇa to belong to the south. In the śatapatha Brāhmaṇa the defeat by Bharata of the Satvants, and his taking away the horse which they had prepared for an Aśvamedha (‘horse sacrifice’), are referred to : this reference clearly shows that in another passage of the Aitareya Brāhmaṇa the text must be altered from satvanām to Satvatām, ‘of the Satvants,’ against whom it seems the Bharatas made regular raids. The name has also been found by the St. Petersburg Dictionary, Cowell, and Max Muller in the Kauṣītaki Upaniṣad, but it is certain6 that the reading there is not Satvan-Matsyesu, but sa-Vaśa-Matsyesu.

pratīpa prātisatvana	Is the name of a man mentioned in a hymn of the Atharvaveda. Zimmer, with great ingenuity, compares the fact that Parikṣit is mentioned as a Kuru king in the Atharvaveda, and that, according to the Epic genealogies, his grandson was Pratiśravas, with which name Prātisutvana, as very possibly a Prākritized version of Prātiśrutvana may be compared, and his great-grandson was Pratīpa. The identification cannot, however, be regarded as at all certain, and while the Epic may have derived its genealogy from the Atharvaveda, it may have preserved an independent tradition. Bohtlingk renders prātisatvanam as ‘ in the direction opposed to the Satvans’, and this may be right.
