Re: [INDOLOGY] Śākadvīpīya brahmans

[Jan E.M. Houben]

Dear Dominik, Madhav and Dipak,
Perhaps still not THE most but at least MORE up to date (list of relevant
publ. in chronological order, 1812-1976, at the end) is:
"MiΘra in India and the Hinduized Magi" by H. Humbach in Acta Iranica 17
(1978): 229-253.
Nagendra Nath Basu's publication not mentioned though.
