INSCRIPTIONS AND COINS.
INSCRIPTIONS.
MORE than 60 inscriptions of the time of
Maharana Kumbha have been discovered.
The earliest inscription is dated the V. S.
1491 (A.D. 1434) and the latest, V. S. 1518
(A.D. 1461). Many of them are of the great-
est importance to the history of India in
general and of Rajputana in particular. They
have thrown a flood of light on the history of
Rajputana and elucidated several obscure
points in the history of Mewar. It is due to
the discovery and deciphering of some of
these inscriptions that the splendid achieve-
ments of this great monarch have become
known, and it has become possible to appre-
ciate his elevated character, his great attain-
ments, and his high position among the great
monarchs of India. A few of these inscrip-
tions are described below :—
