Tiefenthaler

I will take a look at Tiefenthaler's original work when I have some time but does he provide descriptions about the inscriptions of any other site? Fwiw, neither is Kunal a trained historian nor is Prabhat Prakashan a reputed publisher. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, etc. Fyi, @Vanamonde93 and Kautilya3. TrangaBellam (talk) 15:09, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I continue to hold that Kunal's proposal about the Babar Inscription being a forgery is true but yet, the above argument seems too tedious. TrangaBellam (talk) 15:12, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that Kunal is not an ideal source, and I would suggest looking for better, more scholarly sources but honestly it's very hard to find good sources on this dispute. Hemiauchenia (talk) 02:26, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kachhwa Maps

Map 22; Maps [50, 70, 189, 194, 282]; Map 71; Map 179 - Check all. TrangaBellam (talk) 02:20, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that the map discussed by R. Nath — and discussed in Jain — is Tarah No. 179 TrangaBellam (talk) 13:17, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
