䲹Գٲ (चर्मान्त�) refers to �(hiding) under one’s garment�, according to the 15th century ٲṅgī composed by Nīlakaṇṭha in 263 Sanskrit verses, dealing with elephantology in ancient  India, focusing on the science of management and treatment of elephants.—[Cf. chapter 10, “on the catching of elephants”]: �7. Taking five or six reliable cow elephants and covering their backs (literally ‘bellies�) with leather coverings, elephant tenders shall hide under these skins (Գٲ) [Գٲśāyino gajabhaṭāḥ], armed with ropes, etc. Then by striking them with their hands they shall drive the cows straight to a herd, and shall quickly tie up five or six elephants; thus the ‘cow-seduction� is performed, by seducing them with cows�.
