The *Rogaviniścaya* and *Mādhavacikitsā* are completely silent as to their author. He is called Mādhava, Śrīmādhava, or Mādhavakara in the colophons of manuscripts of the *Nidāna* and its commentaries 209 and in those of the *Cikitsā*. 210 His name appears as Mādhava and Mādhavakara in Vijayarakṣita’s part of the *Madhukośa*. Śrīkaṇṭhadatta refers to him as Mādhavakara in his commentary on the *Siddhayoga*. Hemādri once quotes from the *Nidāna* as the work of Mādhavakara.
