I am more than gratified by the excellent reception the book had in India and abroad, in particular. Fortunately, there were more bouquets than brick-bats, though the latter included some of the most valuable suggestions accompanied by constructive and friendly criticism. I am grateful to the admirers and critics alike of this preliminary survey of Pre and Proto-history of India and Pakistan. - [Previous: c3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.subbarao-1956.c3.3) - [Next: c4.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.subbarao-1956.c4.2) - [Up: c4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.subbarao-1956.c4) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.subbarao-1956.c4.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.subbarao-1956.c4.1) · Pramāṇa
