Buddhist Transliteration Terms in Vetter's Lexicographical Study of An Shigao, with Gandhari Equivalents

This dataset consists of two files; the basic one is based on Tilmann Vetter's Lexicographical Study of An Shigao’s Translations, collecting all instances of words that are transliterations of Indic terms. The extended file adds the Gandhari equivalent - when they exist - of the Sanskrit / Pali terms, according to Baums &amp; Glass. This dataset can be used to study the correspondence between Chinese characters and the Indic terms they represent. <strong>Bibliography</strong> Baums, Stefan, and Andrew Glass. n.d. ‘Gandhari.Org – Gāndhārī Language and Literature’.
