Hardcover. Condition: Neu. Monographien zur Indischen Archäologie, Kunst und Philologie. Vol. 21. 240 pp., 1425 ill. color, hc, 1440 gr. Ancient seals say much about people, their names, preferred styles and self-esteem. Over many decades Aman ur Rahman has built a large collection of seals from North-Western Pakistan, which were produced during Hellenistic times up to the Guptas. He classifies them and explains their pictorial content, while Harry Falk, a professor of Indology at Berlin, reads all epigraphs in Kharosthi and Brahmi and provides an introduction on the scribal aspects.

Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: New. 137 pages, 4 pages of plates : illustrations (some colour), maps ; 30 cm. More than 150 documents in Bactrian, the chief administrative language of pre-Islamic Afghanistan, have come to light during the last twenty-five years. These documents include letters, legal contracts, economic documents and a few Buddhist texts; many of them bear dates in the so-called Bactrian era , which is also known from a few inscriptions, such as the Tochi valley inscriptions in Pakistan, but whose starting-point is controversial. The Bactrian documents have the potential to transform our knowledge of the history of the region during the 4th to 8th centuries CE, a period for which we have few contemporary records, but before they can be fully exploited as historical sources it is necessary to establish their relative and absolute chronology. The present volume aims to fulfil this need. In Part 1 we consider the dated documents, discussing the nature of the Bactrian calendar and the epoch of the Bactrian era, and concluding with a conspectus in which all the attested dates are converted to Julian dates on the basis of the facts and arguments presented. In Part 2 we turn to the equally important undated documents, systematically weighing up all types of evidence, whether historical, prosopographical, palaeographical, linguistic or orthographic, which may have a bearing on their dating. Part 3 provides a handy check-list of our conclusions, while the Appendices provide additional and supporting material including editions of the Tochi valley inscriptions and of a Pahlavi letter which was purchased together with the Bactrian documents.

238 S., einige 100 farb. Abb. Lit.verz. Reg. 4° Kart. *neuwertig* Das Werk präsentiert Siegelsteine, Siegelabdrücke, Siegelringe und Verwandtes aus Gandhara, der Region Ost-Afghanistan und Nord-Pakistan aus dem 1. Jahrhundert v.Chr. bis vorwiegend ins 3./4. Jahrhundert n.Chr. Dies ist die Zeit und Region des östlichen Hellenismus und der neuaufkommenden Reiche der Skythen, Kshatrapas und Kushanas. Dementsprechend ist die Glyptik sehr an antiken Vorbildern orientiert, bzw. die frühen Stücke wurden von Handwerkern aus dem Mittelmeerraum geschaffen oder von deren Formenrepertoire angeregt. Die Stücke wurden von Aman ur Rahman gesammelt, der sie rubrifiziert und technisch wie inhaltlich beschreibt. Sie sind durchgängig in Farbe abgebildet; die von den Siegeln abgenommenen Abdrücke dagegen in Schwarz und Weiß. Alle beschriebenen Siegel wurden von Harry Falk gelesen, in ihren namenskundlichen Zusammenhand gestellt und in einer umfassenden Einleitung kultur- und schriftgeschichtlich ausgewertet. Die Aufschriften sind in den Schriften Brahmi, Kharosthi, Griechisch und Baktrisch gehalten; die dabei verwendeten Sprachen sind Gandhari, Sanskrit, Griechisch und Baktrisch. Besonderes Augenmerk lag auf dem historischen Material, vor allem Siegel, die sich den bekannten herrschenden Häusern der Apracas oder Guptas zuordnen lassen, und den Siegeln aus der Kashmir Smast genannten Kulthöhle nördlich von Peshawar, welche für die Ausbildung des religiösen Synkretismus iranischer und indischer Kulte in einmaliger Weise prägend war. Dabei wurden neue Erkenntnisse zur Gestalt der Göttin Bhima gewonnen.Ein Index analysiert das Vokabular der gelesenen Siegel, der auch die Teile zusammengesetzter Namen einzeln auflistet. Zwei Appendices bieten Siegel aus den Museum von Peshawar und Taxila. Diese wurden schon von P. Callieri (1997) und J. Marshall (1951) vorgestellt, doch zum einen ist weiteres Material in der Zwischenzeit hinzugekommen und zum anderen mussten sich beide Autoren gelegentlich auf Abbildungen oder Helfer verlassen, deren Lesungen mit Hilfe neuer Aufnahmen verbessert werden konnte. Ein dritter Appendix bietet numismatische und bildhafte Parallelen zur Glyptik der präsentierten Siegel und zeigt, in welcher Art das Formeninventar zwischen diversen Künsten fluktuieren konnte.
