c5.s3.6
Kātyāyana’s treatment is succinct and systematic. He emphasizes the geometry behind the construction of altars and fires and gives a clear exposition of it. He deals with a few altars and *agnis* but refrains from considering the *kāmyacitis* as the latter are discussed separately in a chapter of his *Śrautasūtras*.
