151976364Calcutta: His Highness the Nizam's Government 1915-1932. First editions of the first ten publications from this now defunct Indian principality. Quarto. Each paper separately paginated and all with plates at the rear. Original printed green wrappers. Recently bound in attractive and tactile black cloth and with red and black morocco gilt spine labels. Number 1 with perforated stamp to lower blank margin of front wrapper and with same stamp in ink on the half-title all with small paper labels on bottom inner margin of front wrappers rear wrappers not bound in but for the last issue front wrapper of first volume with a couple of small wrinkles. An attractive presentation of the scarce first ten publications of this famed archaeological series from the puppet state of Nizam in India.Originally a vassal state of the Mughal government. the state of Hyderabad fell on hard times in the eighteenth century. The Mughal emperor granted the princely state of Hyderabad to Nizam-ul-Mulk the first of a series of Asaf Jahs. A largely autonomous state the Nizams ruled Hyderabad from 1724 to 1947. Late in the eighteenth century the Nizams allied themselves to the British. There were left alone by the British providing they allow the Raj to dictate their foreign policy and provided the Nizams provided soldiers for actions the British took in India. The Nizam’s kingdom was remarkable for its religious tolerance and it secular-orientated rule in general. While the ruling dynasty was Muslim the majority of the population was Hindu. The state adopted a secular administration thereby discouraging religious tensions. Indeed the Nizams built and maintained both Hindu and Muslim temples and facilities. The Kingdom was around the size of France and it was enormously wealthy. Mir Osman Ali Khan the last ruling Nizam of Hyderabad was arguably the richest man on earth in the early 20th century. It all came to an end in 1947 when the newly formed Indian government sent its military to squash the independent state. The state ruled by the Nizam previously called "Hyderabad State" is now primarily part of the Indian state of Telangana. All ten publications are complete and the titles are as follows;1 The New Asokan Edict of Maski. 1915. 2 The Daulatabad Plates of Jagadekamalla A.D. 1017. 19173 Inscriptions at Palampet and Uparpalli. 19194 Pakhal Inscription of the Reign of the Kakatiya Ganapatideva. 19195 Munirabad Stone Inscription of the 13th year of Tribhuvanamala Vikramaditya VI. 1922.6 The Kotagiri Plates of the Reign of the Kakatiya Queen Rudramamba A.D. 1275. 19257 Bodhan Stone Inscription of the Reign of Trailokyamalla Somesvara A.D. 1056. 19258 The Inscriptions of Nagai. 1928.9 Shitab Khan of Warangal by Dr. Hirananda Sastri. 1932.10 The Gavimath and Palkigundu Inscriptions of Asoka. Edited by R. L. Turner. 1932.OCLC records two complete files but no individual titles dating this early. No copies ever at auction. The Nizam spared no expense on this publication using high quality paper and enabling fine photographic illustrations. The first nine numbers were printed at the Baptist Mission Press in Calcutta and the last issue at the Oxford University Press. The Archaeological Department of the Government of the Nizam of Hyderabad restored the Ajanta paintings in the 1920's. His Highness the Nizam's Government hardcover

Bound in the original stiff paper covers. First printing of the first edition. During the period 1925-1931 the British Museum and the Museum of the University of Pennsylvania sponsored a joint archaeological expedition to the site of Ur thought to be the capital of ancient Mesopotamia. Archaeologist C. Leonard Woolley was in charge of the expedition. Their most prominent discoveries were in graves in what was apparently the royal cemetery in Ur. The 2 books offered here constitute the official report of their excavations in the royal cemetery. Note: Wooley gives full credit for much of the work in the cemetery during 1929-1930 to his primary assistant a young British archaeologist named Max Mallowan. It was during that year that the Ur archaeological site was visited by British mystery writer Agatha Christie. There she met Mallowan; they were married in September 1930 and Max and Lady Mallowan remained married until her death in 1976. The 2 books are in about very good condition: internally clean and tight with minor light soiling of the paper covers; minor chipping of paper on the spines; a couple of small chips on edges of rear cover on the text volume; relatively minor line of staining on rear cover of the plates volumes.
