[INDOLOGY] Names and descriptions of indian weapons in sanskrit

[dermot at grevatt.force9.co.uk]

Here's a couple that may be relevant:

Valerie Roebuck, "Weapons as symbols in Indian art" in Symbols in Art and Religion, ed. 
Karel Werner. London: Curzon Press 1990.

Sarva Daman Singh: Ancient Indian Warfare with special reference to the Vedic Period. 
Leiden: Brill 1965. (about real weapons, textually and archaeologically)

Hoping that helps,

Dermot

Dear list members, 

Would anyhow have or be able to point to articles or lists of names and descriptions of 
weapons in sanskrit. In particular names and descriptions of weapons described as being 
held in the hands of gods and goddesses .in the different stotras and descriptions of those 
deities.

Thanks,
Harry Spier
