‎Hyderabad Archaeological Series Numbers 1-10.‎

‎Calcutta: His Highness the Nizam's Government 1915-1932. First editions of the first ten publications from this now defunct Indian principality. Quarto. Each paper separately paginated and all with plates at the rear. Original printed green wrappers. Recently bound in attractive and tactile black cloth and with red and black morocco gilt spine labels. Number 1 with perforated stamp to lower blank margin of front wrapper and with same stamp in ink on the half-title all with small paper labels on bottom inner margin of front wrappers rear wrappers not bound in but for the last issue front wrapper of first volume with a couple of small wrinkles. An attractive presentation of the scarce first ten publications of this famed archaeological series from the puppet state of Nizam in India.Originally a vassal state of the Mughal government. the state of Hyderabad fell on hard times in the eighteenth century. The Mughal emperor granted the princely state of Hyderabad to Nizam-ul-Mulk the first of a series of Asaf Jahs. A largely autonomous state the Nizams ruled Hyderabad from 1724 to 1947. Late in the eighteenth century the Nizams allied themselves to the British. There were left alone by the British providing they allow the Raj to dictate their foreign policy and provided the Nizams provided soldiers for actions the British took in India. The Nizam’s kingdom was remarkable for its religious tolerance and it secular-orientated rule in general. While the ruling dynasty was Muslim the majority of the population was Hindu. The state adopted a secular administration thereby discouraging religious tensions. Indeed the Nizams built and maintained both Hindu and Muslim temples and facilities. The Kingdom was around the size of France and it was enormously wealthy. Mir Osman Ali Khan the last ruling Nizam of Hyderabad was arguably the richest man on earth in the early 20th century. It all came to an end in 1947 when the newly formed Indian government sent its military to squash the independent state. The state ruled by the Nizam previously called "Hyderabad State" is now primarily part of the Indian state of Telangana. All ten publications are complete and the titles are as follows;1 The New Asokan Edict of Maski. 1915. 2 The Daulatabad Plates of Jagadekamalla A.D. 1017. 19173 Inscriptions at Palampet and Uparpalli. 19194 Pakhal Inscription of the Reign of the Kakatiya Ganapatideva. 19195 Munirabad Stone Inscription of the 13th year of Tribhuvanamala Vikramaditya VI. 1922.6 The Kotagiri Plates of the Reign of the Kakatiya Queen Rudramamba A.D. 1275. 19257 Bodhan Stone Inscription of the Reign of Trailokyamalla Somesvara A.D. 1056. 19258 The Inscriptions of Nagai. 1928.9 Shitab Khan of Warangal by Dr. Hirananda Sastri. 1932.10 The Gavimath and Palkigundu Inscriptions of Asoka. Edited by R. L. Turner. 1932.OCLC records two complete files but no individual titles dating this early. No copies ever at auction. The Nizam spared no expense on this publication using high quality paper and enabling fine photographic illustrations. The first nine numbers were printed at the Baptist Mission Press in Calcutta and the last issue at the Oxford University Press. The Archaeological Department of the Government of the Nizam of Hyderabad restored the Ajanta paintings in the 1920's. His Highness the Nizam's Government hardcover‎

While still drawing from the experience and works of "antiquarians" who studied antiquity in a more amateurish and occasional way the authors of the present works attempted to work more methodically towards greater discoveries. This renewed interest in antiquity and the move to studying it in a more scientific way came as a result of several major 18th-century discoveries like the Herculaneum 1709 Pompeii 1748 and the Rosetta Stone 1799 see ad 4.Naturally Egyptology is also a well-represented subject in the present work. It includes a fabulous depiction and detailed description and explanation of the Nile mosaic of Palestrina ad 5 a floor mosaic depicting the flow of the river Nile from the Blue Nile in Ethiopia to the Mediterranean Sea. Additionally the study of hieroglyphs and differing views on deciphering the Ancient Egyptian scripts can be found in ads 3 and 4.Philology in this case the study of language in written historical sources not in oral ones is a returning subject in many of the essays in the present work including the Christie's auction catalogue since it comprises a list of written historical sources in the form of oriental especially Ethiopic manuscripts collected by James Bruce. Four works by the abbot and scholar Jean-Jacques Barthélemy 1716-1795 are also included. He was the first to decipher two alphabets of ancient extinct languages: Palmyrene and Phoenician. His works also include descriptions depictions and explanations of Phoenician medals and the collection of texts in the present volume ends with an engraved example of the Phoenician alphabet.The monogram on the binding based on Louis XIV’s but with a count’s crown instead of the royal crown suggests that the collection was bound for a Bourbon Count Louis in the mid-19th century. Olivier Reliures armoriées Françaises records many examples with the royal crown but only one with a count’s crown plate 1095 no. 3 and it does not resemble the present one and is much older: Ange-Laurent de la Live de Jully 1725-1779. Boards slightly worn mainly at the extremities occasional foxing and browning mainly to ad 3 and 4 fore-edge of ad 1 and foot of ad 3 and 4 slightly frayed upper headband broken but complete.
