v1.c23.s2.11

In support of his hypothesis that Suśruta II lived during the reign of Gautamīputra Śātakarṇi, P.V. Sharma advanced that this Suśruta must have belonged to Southern India,95 since many geographical names connected with the South are found in the Suśrutasaṃhitā,96 while they are for the larger part absent from the Carakasaṃhitā.97 Names connected with other regions are, however, far from rare.
