Kaṅkatīya is the name of a family said in the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa¹ to have learned from Śāṇḍilya the piling up of the sacrificial fire (agni-cayana). In the Āpastamba Śrauta Sūtra² a Kaṅkati Brāhmaṇa, no doubt the textbook of the school, is referred to. It may have been identical with the Chāgaleya Brāhmaṇa, cited in the Baudhāyana Śrauta Sūtra.³
