Translation from Hindu works does not appear to have found a place in the literary interest of the time until Firoz Tughluq’s reign when we find for the first time a number of Sanskrit works rendered into Persian. But if a later report is correct, the century can boast of at least one such translation, a work on Brahminical philosophy named Amritakunda, rendered into Arabic, remarkably enough, by a converted Brahmin from Assam, during the early years of Firoz Khalji’s reign³.
