Summary
[edit]Description6th-century Arang copper plate inscription, Hinduism, king Jayaraja, Chhattisgarh, Sanskrit.jpg |
English: An early Gupta era inscription from ancient India. The inscribed copper plates by 19th century archaeologists about 35 kilometers east of Raipur, near the Mahanadi river, in the town of Arang, Chhattishgarh. The Sanskrit inscription is a Hindu king's donations and grant of villages for the upkeep of a Hindu temple (now lost). The river banks of Mahanadi in this region is a rich archaeologist site of numerous Buddhist, Hindu and Jain monasteries and temples, of which Sirpur group of monuments is the better studied. Hundreds of mounds in this forested area remain unexcavated. This is a photograph of a personal copy of plates published by John Fleet in 1888, with Inscriptions Of The Early Gupta Kings And Their Successors, as a part of the Corpus Inscriptionum Indicarum series, Vol. 3. The inscriptions are 2-D art created in or before the 5th-century CE. The publication date of the photographic plates by Fleet (d. 1917) in 1888 makes the work qualify for the PD-Art-100-70 guidelines.
