v2.c15.1

We have so far discussed Indian astronomy in elaborate detail. The condition of astronomy in the Vedic and Vedāṅga periods preceding the Siddhāntic period was described in Part I and that in the Siddhāntic period in Part II. Each of the three main branches of Jyotiṣa viz. Gaṇita*, Saṃhitā and Jātaka has been separately treated in Part II. Now the author offers his concluding remarks on this Survey.
