[INDOLOGY] cArvAka/lokAyata

[Eli Franco]

Hi Matthew,
There a very few inscriptions which mention Lokayata. See:
B.A.Saletore, "Historical notices of the Lokayatas", ABORI 23, 1942,  
386-397. As I recall, no specific teachers were mentioned.
Sorry for this late response; I was travelling.
Best wishes,
Eli
