It is a collection of essays and papers which I have contributed to various journals and periodicals during the last few years. I have endeavoured to present the subject-matter in a simple and lucid style, so that it may be easily understood by the general reader as well as the scholar. ### [c1.24](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.subbarao-1956.c1.24) I am deeply indebted to the editors of the various journals for their kind permission to reprint these articles. I am also grateful to my friends and colleagues who have helped me in various ways in the preparation of this volume. ### [c1.25](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.subbarao-1956.c1.25) My thanks are also due to the publishers for their keen interest in the publication of this book. ### [c1.26](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.subbarao-1956.c1.26) \*Calcutta\* \*15th August, 1950\* ### [c1.27](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.subbarao-1956.c1.27) R.
