Distinction between dana & daksina in RgVeda

[Christina Fritsch]

Can anyone clarify the difference between the term 'dana' used in the
dana-stuti hymns of the RgVeda and the use of 'daksina' in later Vedic
literature ?  Does this indicate a shift in the rules governing
'gift-exchange' or redistribution of wealth ?

Regards,

C.Fritsch.
