At Ālattūr in Kerala in the late thirteenth century Govindabhaṭṭa, one of the commentators on Varāhamihira’s BJ, wrote a Muhūrtamaṇi, whose contents need to be investigated. A vyākhyā on this was composed by a fellow resident of Ālattūr (Aśvatthagrāma), the prolific Parameśvara, whose grandfather had been Govindabhaṭṭa’s student, in the early fifteenth century.
