Abstract: | An estimate for the probable age of the Hindu astronomy is made here from a reference to the exact longitude of the so-called exaltation of Mars. If it is interpreted as the location of the perihelion of the orbit of Mars at the time of the formulation of the above convention, the epoch is found to be about 1160 BC |
