摘要：
This paper describes the importance of Euclidean geometry for the educational system in medieval Islamic India and surveys the kinds of sources available for study of this branch of Euclidean scholarship. It examines several types of source documents important for the study of Euclidean thought in India and its ties to other branches of the medieval Euclidean tradition. The major types of sources described are: (1) Arabic and Persian translations, (2) Recensions of these translations, (3) Summaries of the Euclidean corpus, (4) Encyclopedic works that include descriptions of Euclidean geometry, and (5) Rhymed prose (manzumat).
