( 29 ) Jaina-Tirtha-Sangraha ( Vol. I, pts. 1 & 2 and Vol. II) published by “Sheth Anandji Kalyanji ", Ahmedabad, in A. D. 1953. It has several indexes. One of them deals with geographical places.
To this list I may add the names of the following published works dealing with Jaina inscriptions as they furnish us with names of cities and villages and with details that can help us in identifying them, when such an attempt is made:
I-III The Jaina Inscriptions (Vols. I-III) collected and compiled by Puran Chand Nahar. Here there is an index of places. Further, there is a list of castes and lineages of the Jaina laity along with that of gacchas and the Jaina monks who installed images. In Vol. II there is, in addition, a list of kings and rulers.
IV-V Jaina dhatu-pratima-lekha-sangraha ( pts. I & II) collected and compiled by Buddhisāgara Sūri. The first part furnishes us with names of (i) installation-places, (ii) castes of the Jaina laity, and (iii-iv ) Jaina monks and their schools. In Part II a list of castes is omitted but names of the rest are given.
1 On the title-page the publication-year is given as A. D. 1942 but really it should be 1953 as oan be seen from the dedication.
