Its decline in the middle ages is related to the parallel rise of the Saunakiya-Samhita as the main text of the Atharvaveda. A mutilated and hopelessly corrupt Sarada manuscript of the Paippalada-Samhita was known from the seventies of the nineteenth century through the efforts of Rudolph von Roth.

But with its lacunae and undetermined readings (ed. L.

C. Barret, 1905-1940) it hardly generated any decisive philological research into the Atharvaveda.

The situation changed with late Durgamohan Bhattacharyya's discovery, after years of search, of complete and much better manuscripts in the Oriya script on which the present edition is based. Durgamohan Bhattacharyya (d.
