Out of all these Anvayas, the Kundakundānvaya is the most important, and very old. It is mentioned in the Merkara Copper plates301 of Saka 388.
It is said to have been started after Kundakunda, the famous Digambara scholar, who flourished in about the beginning of the Christian era. 302
The importance of Kundakunda is further attested by the fact that not less than four Sanghas of the Digambara Church have an anvaya after his name.
