Suvarṇasaṃdhi (सुवर्णसंधि).—(f. or nt., according to text), a ‘golden’ (i.e. advantageous) alliance (by marriage): °dhī ca (v.l. va) kṛtā putrapautrikā Mahāvastu ii.490.19 (prose), and golden alliances (with seven kings, by intermarriage) were made for his sons and grandsons (i.e. to hold for all future time); Senart here deletes suvarṇa; but in the repetition iii.24.11 he keeps it, reading °saṃdhīva (rather °dhī ca, with text above) putrapautrā (but here mss. °traṃ, as if °saṃdhi were nt.). The same incident is described both times.
