The *Kāśyapa Saṃhitā* is another ancient treatise dealing mainly with paediatrics. It is probably of an age not much later than that of the *Bhela Saṃhitā*, if we consider that it is admittedly an abridged edition or version of an earlier work, the *Vṛddha Kāśyapa*.b It is quoted in the Bower manuscript and contains many quotations, not found elsewhere, from the most ancient works of the Ātreya school including some missing treatises.
