"Kautilya, the King Maker" According to Buddhist and Jain traditions, Kautilya, author of Arthashastra, was born with a full set of teeth, a mark of future King. Her mother or father got his teeth removed (making him look uglier) as they didn't want her son to be a King. Instead he became a King-maker. The Arthashastra: L. N.
