It is quite possible that a scheme of 10 male rāgas is earlier than that of six male rāgas. More probably, this is an attempt to ammalgamate two alternative schemes. ### [c15.s17.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.gangoly-1935.c15.s17.3) 10 Male rāgas. Śrī-rāga, Vasanta, Paṇcama, Bhairava, Kouśika, Megha-rāga, Naṭṭa-nārāyaṇa, Hindola, Dīpaka, and Hamsaka. ### [c15.s17.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.gangoly-1935.c15.s17.4) 1.
