furnish the first authentic records of Indian history. Yet the 
language of these inscriptions cannot be said to be exactly identical 
with so-called Magadhi Prakrit, nor with the Pali of the Buddhist 
sacred scriptures, although those forms of Prakrit may be loosely 
called either Magadhi or Pali. Nor was the name Pali originally 
applied to the language of the Buddhist Canon, but rather to the 
line or series of passages constituting a text (cf. the use oilarttra). 
According to Professor Oldenberg the Vinaya portion of the texts, 
existed in its present form as early as 400 B. C. The later Buddhist 
texts were written down not long after, and commentaries have 
since been compiled in Pali and the languages of Ceylon, Siam, 
and Burma ; the Pali of Ceylon being affected by intercourse with 
Kalinga (Orissa). 

* See this Kharoshfhi fully described in Professor Btthler's book. 
The first names given to it were Ariano-Pali, Bactro-Pali, 
Indo-Bactrian, North Asoka &c. Sir A. Cunningham called it 
Gandharian. Pandit Gauri-Samkar, in his interesting work 
Praclna-lipi-mala written in Hindi, calls it Gandhdra-lifi. Some 
think that Kharoshjhi is derived from the name of the in- 
ventor. 



xxvi INTRODUCTION. 

century B.C. At all events, it is well known that the Persian monarchs of the Akhsemenian period 
employed Aramaean scribes, and that the Kharoshthi writing, even if originally Indian (according to 
Sir A. Cunningham and others), has assumed under their hands a manifestly Aramaic character, flowing 
like all Semitic writing from right to left. Possibly, however, as it seems to me, Grecian influences (which 
penetrated into India before the time of Alexander)
