description: "Kamalakara was an Indian astronomer and mathematician. He came from a learned family of scholars from Golagrama, a village in Maharashtra State near Partha-puri (Pathari) on the northern bank of the river Godāvarī. His father, Nrsimha, was born in 1586. Two of Kamalakara's three brothers were also astronomers and mathematicians. Divakara, born in 1606, was the eldest of the brothers and Ranganatha was youngest. Kamalākara learnt astronomy from his elder brother Divākara, who compiled five works on astronomy. His family later moved to Vārāṇasī."
