host gift

[Axel Michaels]

A student of mine wants to do some reserach on the host gift ("Gastgeschenk") in the Dharmashastra. I should know but don't, and would therefore be grateful for help: apart from dAna and pratidAna, is there any specific term for host or hostess gift in Sanskrit? And does anybody know (specific!) text references and/or secondary literature regarding this topic? I am aware of most dAna literature.
