ŚILPA-GRANTHA—by Bhuvanadeva Āchārya (Egg. Mss. 3152, 1603 *b*, written in modern Deva-nāgarī). A short history of the work is given at the beginning. It is stated that God at the request of Aparājita reveals the theory of constructive art, from the creation of mundane egg to the erection of a town gate, and the measurements of banners, waterpots, and bells in sanctuaries.
