saya (śata, śataka) can only mean 'a cento, a century'. Abhay. (on the first uddeśakasamgrahagatha) states that it stands for adhyayana 'chapter'. 'Hundred' in fact, if we consider the Viy. in its present form, can only indicate the 'great number' of different teachings gathered in each chapter (SCHUBRING, Worte Mv. p. 10; Lehre par. 45, 5). Since most sayas of the nucleus (see § 8 below) have ten udd., it is highly probable, though, that the choice of the term is connected with the redactors' preference for decimal subdivisions. It is generally known that many dasās for instance are not actual decades scil. that in canonical nomenclature exact counting was often sacrificed to this manifest preference for decimal subdivisions.
