PREFACE
There have been increasing demands in recent years for
copies of the Annual Reports on Epigraphy, published in the
last two decades of the last and the first half of the present
centuries, from scholars and institutions interested in epigraphical studies and research. And these Reports have been long
out of print. It was, therefore, decided to bring out reprints of
these rare and very useful Reports starting from the initial
year 1887 in convenient volumes. The present one, consisting
of such Reports for the year 1935 to 1938 is the ninth of
the reprint series and will be followed in quick succession by others
containing Reports for the subsequent years.
|
It is hoped that this re-publication will go a long way in
sustaining and furthering interest in epigraphical studies. I wish
to record here my deep sense of gratitude to Dr. M. S. Nagaraja
Rao, Director General, Archaeological Survey of India, New
Delhi, but for whose sympathetic consideration and approval
this useful reprint series would have remained a dream. Shri J. C.
Gupta, Production Ōfficer in my Office, has been largely responsible for the preparation of this reprint scheme and also for the
actual printing and production.
