In Dāmodaran Nampūtiri of the Maṅgalaśśeri house in Kaṇṇāṭipparampu in the Chirakkal taluk in N. Malabar, we have a reputed authority in astrology, of the times. His disciples included Iṭakramañceri Nampūtiri, author of *Bhadradīpa* and the anonymous author of *Jyotiṣasaṅgraha* (II), noticed below. Vaṭakkumkūr mentions two of his works, viz., *Praśnarīti* (I) and *Līlāvatī-vyākya*, which, he adds, have been popular. Manuscripts of these works have, however, yet to be identified.¹
