The term Pur (Devanagari:पुर) occurs approx. 30 times in the Rig Veda. It is often translated as city, castle or fortress. In the Rig Veda, there are also purs made of metal (purās ayasīs in 10.101.8). In Aitareya Brahmana, there is copper/bronze, silver, and golden pur. ==Pur and Pura== "Pur" and" Pura" are suffixes meaning "city" or "settlement", used in several place names across the Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia, Afghanistan and Iran. The word Pura is the oldest Sanskrit language word for "city", finds frequent mention in the ''Rigveda'', one of the four canonical sacred texts of Hinduism, most dating between c. 1500–1200 BCE. However in later Vedic literature it also means fortress or rampart. These days pura is often used for a ''mohalla'' (neighbourhood). ==Pur== * Singapore * Babar Pur, Delhi * Bahadur Pur, Punjab, Pakistan * Bharatpur, Rajasthan, India * Biranarasingh Pur, Orissa * Dayal Pur Delhi * Dinajpur, Bangladesh * Fateh Pur, Punjab, Pakistan * Gokal Pur, Delhi * Gundeshapur, Iran (Ancient) * Jaipur, Rajasthan, India * Jamalpur, Bangladesh * Hakim Pur, Punjab, India * Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India * Khanpur, Punjab, Pakistan * Khanpur, Delhi * Khanpur, NWFP * Khanpur, Uttar Pradesh * Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia * Lal Pur Afghanistan * Libas Pur, Delhi * Mirza Pur, Punjab, Pakistan * Mithe Pur, Delhi * Mohri Pur, Punjab, Pakistan * Rangpur, Bangladesh * Saadat Pur, Punjab, Pakistan * Saghar Pur, Punjab * Sampur, Trincomalee, Sri Lanka * Seet pur, Punjab, Pakistan * Sherpur, Bangladesh * Sultanpur, Uttar Pradesh * Sultan Pur, Delhi * Sultanpur, Madhya Pradesh * Sultanpur, Uttarakhand * Sultanpur Lodhi, Punjab, India * Sultanpur, Karnataka, * Sultanpur, Haryana * Vijay Pur, Jammu and Kashmir * Ziauddin Pur, Delhi * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pur (Vedic)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
