Manava (c. 750 BC – 690 BC) is an author of the Hindu geometric text of Sulba Sutras.
The Manava Sulbasutra is not the oldest (the one by Baudhayana is older), nor is it one of the most important, there being at least three Sulbasutras which are considered more important. Historians place his lifetime at around 750 BC.
