c19.27

An *Agrahāra* was a wider institution, a whole settlement of learned Brahmans, with its own powers of government and means of maintenance granted by generous donors founding them. The Agrahāra was governed by its *Sabha*, some of whose proceedings are recorded in inscriptions [*ib.*, vol. ix, pp. 127–132].
