अनुवर्ग (anuvarga)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
anuvarga (m.? = Pali °vagga, see below), some part or accessory of a city gate: dvinnāṃ varṇānāṃ anuvargā abhunsuḥ (sc. teṣāṃ dvārāṇāṃ) Mv 〔i.195.(11—)12〕. Cf. Pali Bv 〔i.14〕 tulā saṃghāṭānuvaggā sovaṇṇaphalakatthatā. CPD interprets anuvaggā as adj., citing comm., = anurūpā. But this is proved wrong by Mv
like tulā, which occurs in the prec. line of Mv, it must be a part of a structure. See Senartʼs note for a conjectural attempt at interpretation.
