YOU ARE SURELY FAMILIAR with the yajina dumura [a large variety of fig tree]. Another name for it in Sanskrit is udumbara, and yet another name karpara. Previously, the Aryans used to consider the wood of the yajina dumura to be quite hardy, thus during sacrifices (yajina) they would use it as sacrificial wood. Since it was used as sacrificial wood, its name became yajina dumura.
