Unfortunately, the history of this glorious epoch, which is an interesting chapter in the annals of human civilization, was lost and we have been reconstructing it on the basis of information gathered from various sources. Of these, epigraphy is the most important, since the major part of what we already know about ancient India is derived from the study of inscriptions.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn the present work, Professor D.C. Sircar deals with various problems relating to Indian pigraphy and it is expected to be useful to people interested in ancient Indian history in general and Indian inscriptions in particular. Some of the topics discussed herein are: inscriptions and their evidence, languages in which the inscriptions are written, writing materials, the preparation and preservation of documents, copperplate grants, stanzas on bhumi-dana, Indian epigraphy abroad, systems of dating and the different eras, technical expressions including royal titles and official designations, taxes, land measures, nomenclature, etc.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThere are thirty-six plates illustrating various types of epigraphical records.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788120841031\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.4 x 5.6 x 1.0 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Motilal Banarsidass Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49338742702384,"sku":"DRG.MLBD_9788120841031","price":582.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/motilal-banarsidass-publications-book-default-title-indian-epigraphy-39651075391792.jpg?v=1775950226","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/indian-epigraphy","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
