English: Source link: Pārameśvaratantra (MS Add.1049.1, University of Cambridge Collections)
Description paraphrased from the source: This is one of the oldest known dated Sanskrit manuscripts from South Asia. Discovered in Nepal, it was created on a palm leaf and exists as a bundle of written pages. According to the colophon, it was copied in the year 252, which some scholars judge to correspond to 828 CE. The bundle also includes a one-leaf fragment of a Jñānārṇavamahātantra (see Add.1049.2). The text is Pārameśvaratantra, a scripture of the Saiva Siddhanta tradition of Hinduism. This is a collection of photographs of a 1000+ years old manuscript page (2D Art). The original is preserved at the Cambridge University, UK. Wikimedia Commons PD-Art guidelines apply, since the original creator of this artwork lived many centuries ago.
