Gerson Da Cunha’s 1877 text for the <em>Sahyādrikhaṇḍa</em>. It covers the import of O’Hanlon (2013) on the dating of various sections of the <em>Sahyādrikhaṇḍa</em>’s <em>uttarārdha</em> and the support it gives to earlier conclusions by Levitt. Furthermore, it covers the fragmentary text of <em>Sahyādrikhaṇḍa</em> <em>uttarārdha</em> 15, which, it turns out, is about Sārasvata Brahmans at a much earlier date, and the import that this chapter’s generally fragmentary state has with regard to the transmission of the <em>Sahyādrikhaṇḍa</em>. Finally, it briefly discusses the topic of the <em>Pātityagrāmanirṇaya</em>, a separable section of the <em>Sahyādrikhaṇḍa</em>’s <em>uttarārdha</em>, and the historical nature of the text. My edition and translation of this have recently been released by Motilal Banarsidass as no. 6 in their Hindu Tradition Series.</p> ER -
