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
