tvac ‘Skin,’ ‘hide,’ (a) denotes specially in the Rigveda1 the hide used in the process of extracting the Soma juice from the plant. The Soma was pounded with stones (adri) upon the skin laid on the pressing boards (adhisavaηe phalake), which, however, are not mentioned in the Rigveda. Or if a pestle and mortar were used, the skin was still placed underneath them to catch the drops of juice, not above, as Pischel thought. (b) Tvac also denotes the rind of the Soma plant that remains after the juice has been extracted. (c) Metaphorically the term krsnā tvac, ‘ the black skins,’ is applied to the aboriginal enemies of the invading Aryans.
