"The number of streets in the outer compartment should be determined according to its extent, and in the compartments called Divya and Mānushya, 3 or 4 more parallel streets may be made from east to west, with as many cross ones north to south, forming as it were, so many courts or enclosures. The broad streets run through the middle of the village, from east to west and from north to south cutting one another in the middle where should be erected either a temple for Brahmā or a maṇḍapa for general meetings." Rāmrāz seems to give here a summary. - [Previous: c12.s2.14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.dutt-1925.c12.s2.14) - [Next: c12.s2.16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.dutt-1925.c12.s2.16) - [Up: c12.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.dutt-1925.c12.s2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.dutt-1925.c12.s2.15](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.dutt-1925.c12.s2.15) · Pramāṇa
