The text which claims to represent the astronomical science of the Veda has been edited by Weber,¹ and has frequently been discussed since.² Its date is unknown, but is undoubtedly late, as is shown alike by the contents and form of the work. - [Previous: v1.c3.s16.376](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s16.376) - [Next: v1.c3.s16.378](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s16.378) - [Up: v1.c3.s16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s16) ## Linked texts (2) - [Brāhmaṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana) — Sanskrit - [Saṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.samhita) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s16.377](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s16.377) · Pramāṇa
