v7.c49.83
Except for an essay on the Architecture of the Hindus by Ram Raz published in 1834, no attempt till now was made to present the Ancient Indian Architecture in a scientific, clear, and methodic way. To Professor Acharya, therefore, goes the credit of exploring this field of knowledge like a pioneer worker, and of bringing to light a branch of ancient Indian culture which contains interesting, even rather fascinating, materials.
