THE IMPERIAL GAZETTEER OF INDIA VOL. XXVI ATLAS NEW EDITION PUBLISHED UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF HIS MAJESTY'S SECRETARY OF STATE FOR INDIA IN COUNCIL OXFORD AT THE CLARENDON PRESS HENRY FROWDE, M.A. l'UBl.JSKER 'ro THE UNIVERSITY QF OXFORD LONDoN, EDINBURGH, NEW YORK TORONTO AND MELBOURNE PREFACE This Atlas has been prepared to accompany the new edition of Tlte Imperial Gazetteer of India. The original scheme was planned by Mr. W. S. Meyer, C.I.E., when editor for India, in co-operation with Mr. J. S. Cotton, the editor in England. Mr. Meyer also drew up the lists of selected places to be inserted in the Provincial maps, which were afterwards verified by Mr. R. Burn, his suc cessor as editor for India. Great part of the materials (especially for the descriptive rna ps and the town plans) were supplied by the Survey of India and by the depart ments in India· concerned. The geological map and that showing economical minerals were specially compiled by Sir Thomas Holland, K.C.I.E. The meteorological maps are based upon those compiled by the late Sir John Eliot, KC.I.E., for his C!i11uztological Atliu of India. The ethno· logical map is based upon that compiled by Sir Herbert Risley, K.C.I.E., for the Report of tlu Census of India, 1901. The two linguistic maps were specially compiled by Dr. G. A. Grierson, C.l.E., to exhibit the latest results of the Linguistic Survey of India. The four historical sketch maps-showing the relative extent of British, Muham· · madan, and Hindu power in 1765 (the year of the Diwani grant), in 1805 (after Lord Wellesley), in 1837 (the acces· sion of Queen Victoria), and in 1857 (the Mutiny)-have . been compiled by the editor in England. The archaeo logical sketch-map is due to Dr. James Burgess, C.I.E. The whole has been carried into execution, under the supervision of the editor in England, by Mr. J. G. Bartholo me*, who devoted much personal attention to the work, and whose expert knowledge has been of great value. Mr. Bartholomew is also responsible for the index, which, it should be stated, applies only to the Provincial maps and Afghanistan. ? TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE PRE>'ACE • iii Vl MAPS (1-64).
