palm-leaf

Evidence

"This manuscript, a composite one, presents us with a deficient approximation of Beschi’s 1730 corpus... MS no. 67 of the UVSL: Yāpparuṅkalakkārikai with a commentary (67), Taṇṭiyalaṅkāram (67b), and Nannūl (67c)."

Remarks

This composite manuscript (UVSL67) provides an approximation of the fivefold grammatical syllabus (p. 338). Codicological analysis through direct inspection reveals that the Nannūl section was copied between August and October 1838, while the Taṇṭiyalaṅkāram section was completed later in May 1839 (p. 338, footnote 87). It is categorized here as 'Paper' to represent the palm-leaf substrate within the allowed schema categories.
