Dear Herman,
D. Schlingloff, Fortified Cities of Ancient India, London 2014
(English translation of "Die altindische Stadt", Mainz 1969) is
certainly worth trying.
With best wishes
Martin
Zitat von "Tieken, H.J.H. (Herman) via INDOLOGY"
<[email protected]>:
Dear List members,
In an article I am writing I want to refer to descriptions of
fortified towns in the epics. The only publication specifically
dealing with such descriptions that I know of and have at home is
J.K. de Cock, Eene oudindsiche stad volgens het epos (Groningen
1899). .I do not think that a reference to this book is useful in an
English publication. Are there other books or articles about
descriptions (not archaeological finds) of fortified towns in the
epics (Shonaleeka Kaul deals mainly with Kāvya)?
With kind regards, Herman
