Dadhigrama was a village on the banks of the Payosni river in Vidarbha where a school of mathematics and astronomy flourished during the 14th to 19th centuries CE.[1][2]
Some of the well-known members of the school were Cintāmani, a Brahmana of the Devaratragotra, in the middle of the 15th century, Rama (who was patronized by a king of Vidarbha), Trimalla, Vallala, Munisvara, a grandson of Vallala, his son Rama, who wrote a commentary on the Sudhārasasāranī of Ananta (fl. 1525), and Ḳrshnạ (fl. 1600–1625).[2] Ranganatha (fl. 1603), another astronomer of the school, wrote Gūḍhārthaprakāśikā, a commentary on the Suryasidhanta.[3]
