From all these indications we should naturally be led to expect that the relation between Śaunaka and Kātyāyana was very intimate, that both belonged to the same Śākhā, and that Śaunaka was anterior to Kātyāyana. We know of only one other writer whose works are equally intended for the united Śākhā of the Śākalas and Bāshkalas; this is Āśvalāyana, the author of twelve books of Śrauta-sūtras, of four books of Gṛihya-sūtras, and of some chapters in the Aitareyāraṇyaka.²
