Summary: Sanchi Buddhist monuments archive Stupa No. 1 women donor inscriptions, according to Major General Sir Alexander Cunningham in 1854 in The Bhilsa Topes.

| Major General Sir Alexander Cunningham (Jan. 23, 1814-Nov. 28, 1893) acknowledges as "the most valuable of all the inscriptions on the Sánchi colonnade" (1854: page 251) Sanchi Stupa No. 1 inscriptions 33 and 110. Inscriptions 33 and 110 respectively address Bhanduka as "Goti's son" (1854:239) and Subáhita as "son of Goti, the royal scribe" (1854:251). The family associations to Goti, one of the first five adherents of Siddhartha Gautama (from Sanskrit सिद्धार्थ, "successful"; गौतम, “light[-dispelling] darkness”) as Gautama Buddha (from Sanskrit सिद्धार्थ, "successful" and बुद्ध, “awakened”), allow inscription dating to "the early part of Asoka's reign" (1854:251). Cunningham analyses generally attribute dates from the sixth century BCE, the third century BCE -- the reigning time period of Mauryan (from Sanskrit मोर, “peacock [clan emblem]”) Emperor Ashoka (from Sanskrit अशोक, “sorrow-free”), from 268 BCE to his death in 232 BCE -- and the first century AD/CE about Sanchi Buddhist monuments such as Stupa No. 1; depiction of Sermon in the Deer Park, Wat Chedi Liam (Thai: วัดเจดีย์เหลี่ยม; "Temple of the Squared Pagoda"), Chiang Mai, northern Thailand: KayEss, CC BY SA 3.0 Unported, via Wikimedia Commons |
Sanchi Buddhist monuments archive Stupa No. 1 women donor inscriptions, according to Major General Sir Alexander Cunningham in 1854 in The Bhilsa Topes, his book about ancient Buddhist Sanchi and Sanchi-area monuments.
Major General Sir Alexander Cunningham (Jan. 23, 1814-Nov. 28, 1893) balances men and women donor inscriptions at ratios that broker women among ancientest and recentest inscriptions. Nuns comprise inscribees 2, Haná; 7, Deva’s sister, Dharmanaká; 14, Achalá of Nadinagara; 22, Chandá; 26, Udatiká of Vidisa and monks 6, Kánda; and 21, Pusagiri. Donor inscription numbers 8, 16, 18 and 37 respectively designate Ahi-Mitra’s mother, Vákalá Devi; Sinha-Rakshita’s sister-in-law, Sona-Deva; inscribee 36 Subhaga’s sister; and Sarhineyaka’s mother, Arya Rahilá.
Nágá and Dásá, sisters-in-law of Sreshti “head of a guild” and “master of a trade” (1854: page 281) of Kandarigámiya, respectively enabled inscriptions 46 and 45.
Inscriptions 23 and 124, 87, 94 and 182 feature sreshti (from Sanskrit सृष्टि, “creation”) ascetic Abeyaka, harbor master, Bhadra of Kundura and weavers’ master Nágapriya Achhavada.
Tope (from Sanskrit स्तूप, “[relic-gathered] heap” via Pali thūpa, “stupa”) inscriptions guard among first inscribees 1, Dharma Siva of Kekateyapura; 3, Vajra-Gupta; and 4, Dharmagirika’s mother. Inscriptions 5 and 9 honor Janamata Vrijta of Kekateyaka and Phalguna, female-gendered, inscribee 9 upásiká devotee; non-gendered inscribee 75; inscribee 135 Upasidya’s brother and mendicant monk. Mendicant monks Nagadina, Arya-Prasanaka, Kámboja of Nadinagara and, co-inscribee 143 with Kshudra, perhaps inscribee 114 from Kátyaprastha, Dharma Rakshita inspired inscriptions 10, 13, 15 and 19.
Mendicant monks joined mendicant nuns in their journeys to Sanchi Buddhist monuments for Sanchi (from Sanskrit शान्, “calmness”) Stupa No. 1 men and women donor inscriptions.
Pandaya’s pupil, Pratibán; Puna and Hatiya, also inscribees 158; Dhana; Yakshadána; Nagadina; and Sadhana, all mendicant monks, kindled inscriptions 24, 29, 31, 50, 74 and 79.
Mendicant monks Bhanduka, Mauryan (from Sanskrit मोर, “peacock”) scribe Goti’s son and inscribee 110 Subáhita’s brother; and Arhata Gupta of Sásárdaka logged inscriptions 33 and 35. Vákiliyán of Ujain; Ujain architect Gopála Viswakarma; Sona-Devi’s washerman, Agni; Arya-Karmaka; and Sandha Rakshita of Udubaraghariya mustered inscriptions 11 and 76, 12, 17, 20 and 25. Tope addition- and repair-nurtured inscriptions 27, 28 and 155, 30, 32 and 34 named Yasopála, Sarpagiri, Dharma Rakshitá of Mádhava community, householder Budha Ghosha and Vejajjagráma.
Buddhist (from Sanskrit बुद्ध, "awakened") Stupa No. 1 offers Sanchi Buddhist monuments men and women donor inscriptions 39, Supreme Being-longing Kakana, and 38, devotee Upásiká Vadáná.
Tubavan householder Pratisthiya, also inscribee 41; Isa-Rakshita of Narmamaká; Nandabu and Nadisirori; Pothá-Devá; and Varha of Kandarigráma respectively prompted inscriptions 40, 42, 43, 44 and 47.
Scribe Mulagiri; Ujeniyi; devotee Padoná; Isa-Datta, “humble in all things” (1854:243); devotee Upásiká Navágámiká; and Isi-Mitrá of Vahila queue inscriptions 48, 49, 51 through 54. Ujain-residing Rohuni; Dharmagiri; Sona; ascetics Pusánajá, Isi-Mitra; Mula-Dattá; Chhetra’s mother; ascetic Sinha-Dattá; Isaka Saphineyaki (“learned in Vinaya” [1854:246]) reap inscriptions 55 through 60, 66 through 68. Balaká of Ujain and Mayadattá as sister-in-law, and Himadattá and Buddhá as sisters, of inscribee 90, Upendradatta of Ujain, secured inscriptions 61, 62, 63 and 64.
Chapter XVI, Inscriptions. – No. 1. Tope. – Sánchi, teams “one-third of the gifts” (1854:268) tendered to Sanchi Buddhist monuments for Stupa No. 1 with women donor inscriptions.

| Major General Sir Alexander Cunningham (Jan. 23, 1814-Nov. 28, 1893) appreciated women "who in all countries have been noted for their pious donations" (1854:268). Laywomen and mendicant nuns arranged for Sanchi Stupa No. 1 addition- and repair-associated donations. Financial and spiritual assistance by Buddhism-believing, Buddhism-practicing lay and ordained women avows an historical association back to the familial appreciation by Gautama Buddha (624 BCE?-544 BCE?) for foster-mother, stepmother and maternal aunt Mahāpajāpatī Gotamī, who acted for Buddhist ordination of women and who added to her royal titles the religious, spiritual title of first bhikkuni (from Sanskrit भिक्षुणी, "mendicant nun") and vice versa; lithographic print of Prince Siddhartha with his maternal aunt Queen Mahaprajapati Gotami by Sri Lankan temple artist, muralist and sculptor Maligawage Sarlis (1880-1955): Public Domain, via Wikimedia Commons |
