Descriptive Catalogue of mainly Visual Material on Varanasi kept in the Banaras Archive of the South Asia Institute

ed. by Jörg Gengnagel and Birgit Mayer-König 6.2003 [Compare with Gengnagel 2011, Appendix 1: „List of religious and topographical maps of Banaras”]

This is a list of religious and topographical maps, views, panoramas, paintings and pictures which have been collected by the research project on “Visualized Texts – Religious Maps and Divinatory Maps” which is part of the interdisciplinary research project on “Visualized Space: Constructions of Locality and Cartographic Representations in Varanasi (India)” sponsored by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft during the years 2000–2002. This collection does not claim to comprise all the relevant material of its kind. Nevertheless it provides a large number of the various types of maps and other visual representations collected during the last years. The material may be interesting to historians of religious cartography, cultural geographs or other scholars working on cartography, Varanasi and related topics. While the topographical maps are listed in chronological order, the list of the religious maps follows typological criteria. Copyright remains with the respective institutes and authors.

All the material listed is available at the South Asia Institute. At present the Banaras Archive is located in the Department of Classical Indology, room no. 308 (Contact no.: 06221-548817). The material is identified by individual numbers: BA- stands for Benares Archive and its religious maps, BA-A- for similar materials refering to other sites than Varanasi, BA-B- denotes views, paintings, photographs of Varanasi, BA-T- topographical maps. Drawings were prepared by Niels Gutschow and his team of graphic artists wherever noted.
