Mitra
Hindu · deity · vedic · deity
CROSS-TRADITION NOTE, stated and not drawn as an edge. The corpus holds `zoroastrian_mithra` and now holds this record, and the two names are one Indo-Iranian word. That is a fact about the traditions rather than a relation between two beings, and lane 15 declined to draw the same kind of edge in the opposite direction, for the daeva Indra. The registry can hold both and say why without asserting they are one figure. No `sibling` edge is written toward `hindu_indra` or `hindu_varuna`, who ARE in the Rigvedic list of Adityas and ARE in the corpus, because `sibling` is symmetric and would mutate two pre-existing records; the list is on this record's lifecycle instead.
