Early South Indian Palaeography c3.8

c3.8

I am under obligation to the Archaeological Survey of India for supplying me photographs of the Brāhmī inscriptions dealt with in this book and of which they have the copy right. Mr. T. N. Subrahmanyan gave me valuable suggestions and help in my study of the Brāhmī inscriptions for which I am very much beholden to him. Dr. N. Subrahmanyam, Reader in Indian History went through a few chapters in the manuscript and gave me some useful suggestions for which I am thankful to him. I am indebted to Sri S. Gurumurthy, M.A., Research Assistant and Sri Y. Subbarayalu, M.A., Research Fellow in the Department for helping me in seeing the work through the Press. Sri Gurumurthy and Sri G. Ramamurthy, M. A., Technical Assistant in the Department, prepared the index for the book for which my thanks are due to them.
