Kāśikāvṛttī

The Kāśikāvṛttī ("the commentary of [composed or used in] Kāśi, i.e. Varanasi") is a commentary on Pāṇini, attributed to Jayaditya and Vamana, composed in c. the 7th century.

It is considered the "fourth great grammar" of Sanskrit, after Pāṇini himself (4th century BCE), Patanjali's Mahabhasya (2nd century BCE) and Bhartrhari's Vakyapadiya (6th century CE).
