PREFACE
..Again, I must thank all those learned scholars who, during the last more than a hundred
years, discovered and edited the inscriptions included here. I have differed from them here
and there in the reading and interpretation of some passages, but I must gratefully acknowledge my indebtedness to their work. I have dedicated this Volume to the memory of the late
Rao Bahadur K. N. Dikshit, former Director General of Archaeology, who first turned my
attention to the study of epigraphy nearly fifty years ago, and encouraged me in various ways.
Further, I make this humble offering at the altar of the Almighty who has blessed me with a
long life for the completion of this work.
..Finally, I must offer my grateful thanks to Shri M. N. Deshpande, Director General of
Archaeology, for having accepted this work for publication, and to the authorities of
Sree Saraswaty Press Ltd., Calcutta, for their careful printing.
