Dear Herman,

D. Schlingloff, Fortified Cities of Ancient India, London 2014 
(English translation of "Die altindische Stadt", Mainz 1969) is 
certainly worth trying.

With best wishes
Martin

Zitat von "Tieken, H.J.H. (Herman) via INDOLOGY"

> Dear List members,
> In an article I am writing I want to refer to descriptions of 
> fortified towns in the epics. The only publication specifically 
> dealing with such descriptions that I know of and have at home is 
> J.K. de Cock, Eene oudindsiche stad volgens het epos (Groningen 
> 1899). .I do not think that a reference to this book is useful in an 
> English publication. Are there other books or articles about 
> descriptions (not archaeological finds) of fortified towns in the 
> epics (Shonaleeka Kaul deals mainly with Kāvya)?
> With kind regards, Herman
