V Archæological Exploration in India, 1910–11

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  15 March 2011

Extract

The record of archæological discoveries made during the year 1910—11 must of necessity fall short of the brilliant accounts which Mr. Marshall has been in the habit of publishing in the pages of this Journal with regard to the work of previous years. Mr. Marshall himself was absent on long leave during the whole period, and while I was officiating for him I had to devote myself almost entirely to questions connected with the preservation of ancient monuments and museum administration, and to the duties of office routine.

page 119 note 2 The anusvāra has been omitted over the final aksharas of Bōdhisvatva, svakāyā, chitāyā, achāryana (read āchāryānāṃ), and Dharmagutakāna (read °gutakānāṃ). The curious akshara sva in Bodhisvatva, evidently a clerical error for sa, has been found elsewhere in Mathurā inscriptions.

page 119 note 3 The word chitā (or chētā?) is apparently synonymous here with Sanskrit caitya.

page 119 note The reading kaṭi yē is doubtful. I suppose that it corresponds to Sanskrit kṛtir yaṃ, and have translated accordingly.
