Comm. KT: 1. The fact that there would be none available on a non-killing day seems to indicate that butchers didn’t store meat overnight, but slaughtered animals as needed—which makes sense in a time without refrigeration. There is a parallel term, pavattaphala: ‘natural fruit’, which means fruit that has fallen from the tree. But if pavattamaṁsaṁ meant ‘meat from an animal that died of natural causes’, then the fact that it was a non-killing day wouldn’t make any difference.
