Description

A complete text of the purāṇa, also called Satī Purāṇa, thought to originate in the Assam region in the 10th‒11th centuries. It includes the story of Satī, of sacred sites in Kāmarūpa, and describes forms of Devī and modes of her worship. The last two folios have a table of contents, listing over 90 chapters whose topics correspond to those mentioned by V. Raghavan (1938) and R.C Hazra (1963), though manuscripts vary in the number and division of chapters.
