Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan, v. 1 of 3 / or the Central and Western Rajput States of India

Opening of the book

Transcriber’s Note:
The text is annotated with numerous footnotes,
which were numbered sequentially on each page.
On occasion, a footnote itself is annotated by a
note, using an asterisk as the reference. This
distinction is followed here, with those ‘notes
on notes’ are given alphabetic sequence (A, B,
etc.). Since there are over 1500 notes in this
volume,
they
have
been
gathered
at
each
chapter’s end, and resequenced for each chapter.
The notes are a combination of those of the
author, and of the editor of this edition. The
latter are enclosed in square brackets.
Finally,
the
pagination
of
the
original
edition, published in the 1820’s, is preserved
for ease of reference by including those page
numbers in the text, also enclosed in square
brackets.
There are a number of references to a map,
sometimes referred to as appearing in Volume I.
In this edition, the MAPMAP appears at the end
of Volume III.
Crooke’s plan for the renovation of the Tod’s
original text, including a discussion of the
transliteration of word other than English, is
given in detail in the Preface.
Minor errors, attributable to the printer,
have been corrected. Given the history of the
text,
it
was
thought
best
to
leave
all
orthography as printed.
Please see the transcriber’s note at the end
of this text for details regarding the handling
of any textual issues encountered during its
preparation.
Any
corrections
are
indicated
using
an
underline highlight. Placing the cursor over the
correction will produce the original text in a
small popup.
