________________ No. 141 THE FIRST ABYA-SIDDHANTA: "TRUE" SYSTEM. 123 TABLE LXI. NOTES Cols. 1 to 4.-The present Table states the concurrent years so as exactly to correspond with Table I of the “Indian Calendar " and in that respect to save trouble for those who have become accustomed to use that publication. The year usually quoted in inscriptions is the expired year, though sometimes the concurrent year is given; e.g., the year A.D. 899-900, corresponds to the concurrent years K. Y. 4001, Saka €22, but to the expired years K, Y. 4000, Saka 821. Col. 8.-All the entries are of intercalated (adhika) months, except those in italics, which are suppressed (kahaya) months. A List of instances where in important details the Arya and Sürya differ is given in Table A at end of text. It has not been thought necessary to include in this Table the years between A.D. 499 and 899. This paper concerns computation by the true motions of sun and moon, and it is practically certain that prior, at least, to the latter date all calculations for almanacs in India were made by mean planetary motions
