| Abstract | The so-called “Gilgit manuscripts” are a corpus of Buddhist texts discovered in 1931 from the ruins of what was previously assumed to be a stūpa in the village of Naupur (Navapura; located amidst the Karakoram Mountains at an altitude of about 1500 m, in what is now Pakistan-occupied Kashmir) near the Gilgit River. Excavation was done twice in this place and what was excavated is called “Gilgit manuscripts” in a narrow sense. In recent years, manuscripts written in the same script have been discovered from north-west India including the area around Gilgit; these can also be called “Gilgit manuscripts” in a broader sense. This article deals with the collection of the National Archives of India, which accounts for the majority of Gilgit manuscripts found at Naupur in 1931. |
