The number of *Smriti* writers was great. The need of *bhāṣyas* (commentaries) was felt, and already as contemporaries of original writers like Yama, Angiras etc. commentators like Asahāya (c 800), Samvarta (c 800) and Bhartriyajna (c 800) are seen flourishing. And they are important enough to be quoted by subsequent scholars.⁴
