135 NCC I, 443 and V, 328. Compare Cat. Puṇyavijayaji II, Nr. 6409: Vājivāhanaśāstra by Garga. Garga is referred to as an authority on aśvaśāstra in Bhoja's Yuktikalpataru, Durlabhagaṇa's Siddhopadeśasaṃgraha, Gaṇa's Aśvāyurveda, Godāvara's Hariharacaturaṅga (3.729), and Nakula's Aśvaśāstra. Garga's work on horses is said to be referred to in the Matsyapurāṇa and the Prayogaratnākara (D.N. Garg, 1987: 108). He is quoted, but not as an authority on horses, in Bhaṭṭotpala's commentary on Varāhamihira's Bṛhatsaṃhitā (chapters 61, 62, 63; on dogs, cocks, and porpoises respectively). Compare on Garga: authorities mentioned in the Carakasaṃhitā.
