Another fundament for Jain history are the inscriptions. GUÉRINOT’s “Essai” was followed in 1908 by a “Répertoire d’épigraphie jaina.” Though not the work of a specialist, yet LUDERS’ “List of Brāhmī Inscriptions from the earliest time till about 400 A.D. with the exception of those of Aśoka” is valuable thanks to innumerable inscribed allusions to the Order of Jain laymen and monks. (EI 10, App. L.C. 1912.)
