In the General Table, which gives the names of the intercalary and expunged months, I have adopted the calendar published by Cowasjee Patell. The initial days of the years I have calculated myself throughout up to A.D. 540. The early calculations have been made with the solar reckoning of Aryabhatta : but from 541 down to the end, according to the solar reckoning of Varâha Mihira. Cowasjee Patell's Tables are calculated according to Aryabhatta, whose reckoning is still used in Southern India.
