The related fields to which attention is paid in CESS are cosmology and geography (largely of the Jainas) and those aspects of \*dharmaśāstra\* that involve the determination of the proper times for the performance of ritual acts. It is intended to include all of the works and all of the authors in these subjects that can be identified. - [Previous: v1.c2.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1970.v1.c2.3) - [Next: v1.c3.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1970.v1.c3.2) - [Up: v1.c3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1970.v1.c3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1970.v1.c3.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1970.v1.c3.1) · Pramāṇa
