v1.c20.s2.13

The Aṣṭāṅgasaṃgraha mentions Agniveśa as one among the many ancient authorities whose treatises form the basis of the work (A.s.Sū.1.4–18). He is again referred to as the one who asks Ātreya a question about the application of clysters (A.s.Ka.5.57). Towards the end of the treatise he figures as the first who wrote down the teachings on āyurveda originating from Brahmā (A.s.U.50.202).
