Vetasu is a name occurring in the singular in two passages of the Rigveda and once in the plural. It seems that he was defeated by Indra, but there is no reason to assume that he was a demon. Zimmer thinks that the Vetasus were probably the tribe of which Daśadyu was a member, and that they defeated the Tugras. The passages are too obscure to render any version probable.
