1. The existence of a Version of the theory of Ātreya on the skeleton in some works of a non-medical character has been referred to in § 1. This Non-medical Version is found in two legal and two religious text-books. The former are the Law-book of Yājnavalkya (Yājñavalkya Dharma-śāstra) and the Institutes of Vishnu (Viṣṇu Smṛti). The latter are the Vishnu Dharmottara (*Viṣṇu-dharmottara*) and the Agni Purāṇa (*Agni Purāṇa*).
