Miscellaneous Notes

There is one unnumbered folio at the beginning and two at the end which seem to refer to the date. The first folio at the beginning mentions prabhava, paṅguni month, 15th day. At the end one of the folios states in Telugu: āḍi 20th; the other mentions raktākṣi year, āḍi month, 19th day, as the day when the clerck of the chief of the committee gave the sthalapurāṇa of the madurai temple to the sthānika of manamadurai temple. The word committee is given in English but in Tamil script. However these two leaves are very narrow in size and appear to be later than those of the Ms. This work deals with the rites connected with the mahotsava done according to the kāmika and other āgama-s
