    Kashi Prasad Jayaswal was a lawyer and a noted historian in th early twentieth century in India.

    He did much research and wrote a number of books which presented a completely different picture from that which was being painted by the colonial historians.

    He built up a picture of India’s history, for the period which had been treated as the dark age of the Indian subcontinent, the period prior to 800 CE.
    In particular he write a numbers of books”

    The Imperial History of India, Hindu Polity, The History of India from 150 Ad to 350 AD. He also wrote a numbers of papers.

    This was decried by some colonial historians and their followers.

    Along with Rahul Sankritiyayan, another great Sanskritist, he recovered and preserved many ancient manuscripts.

    One such manuscript was the Arya Manjushree Mulakap, which work is ascribed to a Tibetan Buddhist Historian, who is dated about the 8th century AD.

    Leaving the dates aside, for the dates and chronology can be questioned, the picture he built was a picture of an continuity of History in India, and that there was no dark period of history.

    From a Jat perspective he showed how the second Guptas were Jats, from the Mathura regions.

    This was not accepted by some of his contemporaries.

    However it is known that the Goth of the Guptas was Dharan , and Dharan is a Jat goth.


    His chronology was built, upon the sheet anchor of the synchronization of Alexander and Sandrkottus, who was equated the 1st Maurya Chandragupta, on the basis of similar sounding names, by the 18th century historian Jones.

    These chronologies are now being questioned, as current researchers try and reconcile the data from Indian traditions sources with other sources. That however is anther story.

    From our immediate perspective, we have thanks to the great pioneer, a mass of primary data, which can be used by us to further our researches.

    Thanks also to the internet, his work, which was not so well known, is now available to us worldwide.

    We hope more historians with the knowledge and skills of Sanskrit, Pali, etc can bring to bear their talents on this subject.
