[INDOLOGY] Mss. from Rotkuppelraum, Qyzyl

[Dieter Gunkel]

Dear Prof. Salomon,

I'd also recommend

Malzahn, Melanie (ed.). 2007. *Instrumenta Tocharica*. Heidelberg: Winter.

It has a chapter on the expeditions by Hannes Fellner and five chapters on
collections and concordances.

The Comprehensive Edition of Tocharian Manuscripts (CEToM) is also
extremely useful: https://www.univie.ac.at/tocharian/.

If this doesn't do the trick, let me know, and I'll put you in touch with a
real Tocharian specialist.

Best wishes,

Dieter Gunkel
