v1.c7.106

NĀVĀ-ŚĀSTRA—“On ship-building and navigation.” But the work is chiefly astrological. Some directions are, however, given respecting the materials and dimensions of vessels. (Taylor’s Catalogue Raisoneé, vol. III. p. 6). In Taylor’s Catalogue Raisoneé, there is mentioned another Ms. of which the title is lost. It is “on the art of constructing forts, houses, fanes, of settling a village; navigation and variety of other similar things emunerated as taught in 36 works, the names of which are given.” (Ibid. vol. III. p. 350).
