Indian Medicine (Medicin), translated by C. G. Kashikar c8.66

c8.66

Hoernle has also commenced the editing of other MSS found in the same region, which also mostly contain Indian recipes or spells and are partly still older than the Bower MS. Thus in the *Macartney MS* written about 350 A.D., a paper MS unfortunately preserved in a bad condition, there occur the names of several known medicinal plants like *Arka*, *Priyaṅgu* and the metals gold, silver, iron, copper and zinc².
