Authorship[edit]

The article Nemichandra cites the following source to state that according to recent research, Dravya-sangraha was written by another Nemichandra, who lived in the 11th century: Sangave, Vilas Adinath (2001), Facets of Jainology: Selected Research Papers on Jain Society, Religion, and Culture, Mumbai: Popular Prakashan, p. 205, ISBN 978-81-7154-839-2

I don't have access to this source, so I can't verify this. If someone else has access to this or another source, please update either this article or the article on Nemichandra. utcursch | talk 16:22, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
