nsactions of the royal Austrian, Bavarian, Prussian, and Saxon Academies, the Museon and the Revue de l'histoire des religions.

Histories of India by Elphinstone (religious material, chapters iv book i, and iv book ii), by Elliot, by Marshman (complements Elphinstone), and by Wheeler (unreliable); The Rulers of India; Hunter's Indian Empire and Brief History.
