Hello Dr Anderson,

This is not exactly in my focus area so I'm sure others will have better suggestions, but two texts immediately come to mind:

Geslani, M. (2018). Rites of the God-King: Santi and Ritual Change in Early Hinduism. United States: Oxford University Press.

Gonda, Jan. Ancient Indian Kingship from the Religious Point of View. Germany, E. J. Brill, 1966.

I also feel like there might be something in PV Kane's encyclopedic works, but I'm not sure. 

sincerely,

Tejas

Can anyone point me to discussions about early mythological Hindu theorizing about the origins of state-level society and kingship?

Thanks,

Dean
