R. C. TEMP LE;E d i torfor 37 years.
FIFTY YE ARS OF THE I ND I AN ANTI QUARY .
The I nd i em Antiquary was founded as a monthly Journal in January1872 by the late Dr . James Burgess , LL .D . , at his private risk , andits fiftieth year of existence was completed with the 640t h issue for Decem~
ber 1921 , many of the annual volumes having contained more than twelvenumbers .
The obj ects and scope of the Journal are explained in two preliminarynotes by Dr . Burges s in Vols . I and X I I I respectively . It was intended toprovide a means of communication between the East and the West on su b
jects connected with Indian Research , and a j ournal to which students andscholars ; Indian and non-Indian , could combine to send notes and queriesof a nature not usually finding a place in the pages of A siatic Societies .Th e main aim was to promote and encourage research . From this aimthe Jou rnal has never swerved , though the high class of the communicationssent to it has always been beyond the original forecast , while the number ofEuropeans and - Indians joining to assist each other has increased as timewent on .
After a while Dr . Burgess's eyesight became so troublesome that he
decided to give upthe Journal and it was taken over on the l st January1885 by the late, Dr . J . F . Fleet , C . I .E P h .D . , Indian Civil Service , and
Captain R . C . Temple , Indian Army (now Lieut .-Col . Sir Richard CarnacTemple
, B t . , C .B It was conducted by them at their j ointrisk and under their j oint editorship for seven years , when Dr . Fleet retired ,
and Captain (then Major) Temple carried it on at his own risk alone and assole editor-proprietor from the l st January 1892 till the completion of thehalf century in December 1921 , and st ill so conducts it . From the l stJanuary 191 1 to date Professor D . R . B h and arkar , M.A ., of CalcuttaUnivers i ty ,
has been j oint-editor with Sir R . C . Temple . Dr . Burgess died inOctober 1916 ,
at a great age and Dr . Fleet in February 1917 , and it is amatter of pathet ic interest to note th at Dr . Fleet ’s last contribution
,in
January 1917 ,was an obituary notice to Dr . Burgess . Th e late Mr . A . M . T.
Jackson,M.A . ,
of th e Indian Civil Service , a g reat friend of the Indian people,would have been a j oint-editor b ut for his untimely death, in December1909, by the hand of a misguided political fana tic .
The chief feature of the I nd z’
an Anti quary in the first twenty years ofits existence was all along the reproduction and publication of Inscriptions , M M
adequately edi ted from the originals themselves . The Inscriptions published were largely sought out or collected and reproduced mechanically bya staff direc tly employed by the proprietors and trai ned by them , and somewere also supplied by Government agency . During these twenty years
Fifty Years of the' Indian Anti qaaiy
the j ournal was th e ch ief source for European sch olarship of accurateinformation regardingIndian Epigraphy . B ut about 1888 the Governmentof India decided to reproduce the Inscriptions of the country under its ownofficials
,and an agreement was entered into in 1892, bywhich theGovernment
Journal the Epigraph i a Ind i ca,was published on the basis established by
the Ind i an Anti qnai 'y as an official quarterly Supplement to that Jou rnal .This agreement lasted twenty-eight years
,till 1920, when it came to an end
owing to another mu tual agreement , and the Epigraph i a Ind i ca is nowpublished directly by the Government . During the period it was a Supplement to the Ind i an Anti quary thirt een biennial volumes were produced ,although it always continued to be a charge on the funds of the Journal .
The Ind i an Anti quary has throughout been conducted on an honorarybasis . No one has ever been paid for a contribution or as an editor or as anassistant of th e editors , while the proprietors h ave contributed annuallytowards the cost of the Journal , sometimes heavily , despite th e assistancereceived from time to time , by way of subscription for copies , accorded bythe Secretary of State for India , the Government of India and i ts subordinateGovernments and by the NativeRu lers .
The subj ects with which the Jou rnal has been principally concernedh ave been the Archaeology , Ethnology , Geography , History , Folklore ,Languages , Literatu re , Numismatics , Philology ,
Philosophy and Religion ofthe Indian Empire , and , to a certain extent , of its surroundings . Not able ,and i n some cases epoch making , contribu tions have been published on allthese subj ects , several of them having been preliminary studies of books subsequently well-known to Indian and Oriental students and even to generalfame .
Th e Editors have been themselves among th e largest individual eontributors to the pages of the Ind i an Antiq i tary , b ut they have had the co-operation of many great Indian and Oriental scholars in India itself as well as all overEurope and in America . The list of contributors during the firs t fiftyyears reaches a total of 527 , every one of whom has been an earnest s tudentof things Indian
, th e great maj ority acquiring their knowledge at first hand .
This long list contains many names th at have become famous , or at any ratewell and favourably known to those connected with Indian research . Thenames of the more important Orientalist s and of th ose contributing the mostnotable articles are as follows

The Jou rnal has always been and still is,printed in the same Press
in Bombay (Mazgaon) , at first owned by the Bombay Education Society’s
Press and subsequ ently by the British I nd ia‘
P ress . The illustrations havelikewise been chiefly produ ced in the same bu ilding in London (Hanover Street , Peckham) by the late Mr . William Griggs (W . Griggs and Sons)and his successors Messrs . Charles Whittingham and 'Griggs Ltd . Therelations of the Editor-Proprietors with the Presses and the Illu stratingFirms have always been most cordial
,enabling them to surmou nt together
the many difficulties of publication brough t abou t by the conditions ofEuropean life in India
,by the many widely divergent vernacular characters
used , and latterly , by the Great War . One set of several expensive plateshad to be reprodu ced and despatched three times
,owing to enemy action
,
before they reached the pages of the Ind i an Anti quary . The meticulousaccu racy of the Peckham firm ’
s reproduction of Inscriptions has been everywhere acknowledged by scholars . In this way 478 plates oi Inscriptionshave been published in the Journal itself and 624 in its Supplement , theEpigraph ia Ind i ca . In the matter of secu ring accurate reproductions ofInscriptions
,the Editor-Proprietors have never spared expense, owmg to thei r
importance to historical research,notably in the case of the Asoka Inscribed
Edicts on the Iron Pillars at Delhi and Allahaba d , which were scientificallyreproduced at great cost in 1883-4 , in the resu lt found to be justified 'Vi deProf . Buhler’s fundamental article on the subj ect in the 13th vol . ( 1884)The Ind i an Anti quary has seen many changes take place in the fifty
years of it s history . Among them the following may h e‘
spec1ally noticedhere . Wh en the Journal was started it was still the fash 1on to talk of the1000 years between Asoka and the Muhammadan ascendancy as a blankas to dates and real history
, b ut thanks to the efforts of many contri b u
tors to the Ind i an Anti quary it has been a principal means of filling upthisgreat gapalmost year by year . In the accomplishment of so great a feat ,its main contribu tion has been the systematising of the method of recording reproducing and editing inscriptions and settling the principle s of

- '
into readab le_Er1glish . Wh en the Journal first started , Indianswith the requi site knowledge of these principles were very few , and thosewho cou ld write correct English were fewer still , b ut in the half centuryintervening between 1872 and 1922 they have become so numerous as tobe able with great credit to themselves to fill nearly the whole Journal .And not only that , they have made it possible to found , as additions to thelong established Asiatic Society of Bengal , Bombay Branch Royal AsiaticSociety
,Madras Literary Society and Calcutta Review , local Research
Societies in Calcu tta , Madras , Bombay, Allahabad , Lahore , Patna , Bangalore
,Hyderabad
,Mysore and in several Native States , all contribu ting
adequately to a knowledge of the past in India . Another fact as regardschange of conditions in Indian learning and general knowledge is that , inorder to let Indians know the resu lts of Eu ropean research as it proceeded
,
the more remarkable of them by Continental scholars were given in theInd ian Anti quary, from time to time , in translations . It will soon notbe necessary to continue this practice, as so many Indian scholars arenow acquainted with what the English call foreign languages .
In order to render the pages of the I nd i an Anti quary as valuableas possible , general Indices to the first fifty volumes relating to au thorsand subj ects are being prepared with all the cross-references necessary .
It is hoped th at the entries in the Indices which relate to Inscriptions,their dates and find -spots , and the dynasties and eras concerned withthem,
‘
will be found to be specially valuable to students in the future .The following very brief description of the contents of the first 640
issues of the Ind ian Anti quary will give those interested in Indian Researchsome idea of the work that has been accomplished by the contributorsto its pages du ring the last fifty years .
Volumes under D r. James B urgess—The Contents of Volume I aretypical of all the forty-nine volumes that followed and show to some extenthow the work has been carried on during the whole half century and thewide range of subj ects discu ssed ,
