in the texts
Rigveda
Skillful craftsman-deity who made a praiseworthy name and knows all guidance-signs.
The skillful Ṛbhu has made the praiseworthy and lovely name;
Like Ṛbhu fashioning a new chariot-wheel, place insight as a sign (for Vena);
Atharvaveda (Paippalāda)
A craftsman deity invoked as the model for rejoining a broken body like chariot parts.
or if you fell from a tree — O ten-headed, O Ṛbhu, I join your joints together as craftsmen join together the parts of a chariot.
