Manava (ca. 750 BC – 690 BC) is an author of the Indian geometric text of Sulba Sutras.
The Manava Sulbasutra is not the oldest (the one by Baudhayana is older), nor is it one of the most important, there being at least three Sulbasutras which are considered more important. Historians place his lifetime at around 750 BC.
Manava would have not have been a mathematician in the sense that we would understand it today. Nor was he a scribe who simply copied manuscripts like Ahmes. He would certainly have been a man of very considerable learning but probably not interested in mathematics for its own sake, merely interested in using it for religious purposes. Undoubtedly he wrote the Sulbasutra to provide rules for religious rites and it would appear almost a certainty that Manava himself would be a Vedic priest.
The mathematics given in the Sulbasutras is there to enable accurate construction of altars needed for sacrifices. It is clear from the writing that Manava, as well as being a priest, must have been a skilled craftsman.
Manava was the son and successor to the king of Gauda, Shashanka. He was the last recorded ruler of the dynasty and was likely deposed by Harshavardhana (Emperor of Northern India) or Bhaskaravarman (King of Kamarupa). He ruled as king for 8 months.As per Sharadindu Bandhyopadhyay's Novel 'Gour Mallar' ManabDeb(King Manava) had his son. His name was 'Bajra Dev' ( Bajra). Flew from the battlefield ( Battling with Harshabardhan), he went to 'Betasgram' ( a Village of Gauda). There he met with 'Rangana'. Who saved his life. Later he married Rangana and went to 'Karna Subarna' to save the capital. He failed to keep Bhaskaravarman away from acquiring Gauda. Bajra Dev was the king of Gauda for only 1 day.
