"Siddhanta" literally means "Doctrine" or "Tradition".It follows the Yavanajataka ("Saying of the Greek") as an example of the transmission of Western astronomical knowledge (especially the Alexandrian school) to India during the first centuries of our era.The Paulisa Siddhanta was particularly influential on the work of the Indian astronomer Varahamihira. It was considered as one of "The Five Astronomical Canons" in India in the 5th century.
