Dear all,
ah, I found what I had in mind -- it's here:

(also available here:

VEDIC HINDUISM by S. W. Jamison and M. Witzel (1992)
Thanks to Arash for the other reference! I'll recommend that to my students as well. :-)
Best,
Agnes
Dear Patricia,
I don't know which similarities your friend is after, but two suggestions:
- Witzel, Michael. 2011. Gandhāra and the formation of the Vedic and Zoroastrian canons. In Proceedings of the International Symposium. The Book. Romania. Europa. Etudes euro- et afro-asiatiques. 490-532. Bucharest: Biblioteca Bucureştilor. <<< Agnes, is this the article you had in mind?- Stausberg, Michael & Yuhan Sohrab-Dinshaw Vevaina (eds.). 2023. The Wiley Blackwell companion to Zoroastrianism (Wiley Blackwell Companions to Religion). Chichester: Wiley-Blackwell. <<< Part I will have a number of articles of interest to your friend.
All best,Arash

Dear Friends,
A friend who is not on the list is seeking a good book or two that discusses the similarities between the Avesta and Rig Veda.
Might any of you have suggestions? Many thanks.
