Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.

As early as the first tournament in 1950, FIBA had decided to name the trophy in honor of Naismith, but did not have the funds to create the trophy. Finally, in 1965, FIBA received a US $1,000 donation and commissioned a trophy. The trophy was introduced at the 1967 tournament and was awarded to the Soviet Union, which won their first ever FIBA World Championship at the tournament.

Archaeological Survey of India
Bitte beachten Sie, dass dieser Titel überwiegend aus Inhalten besteht, die im Internet kostenlos erhältlich sind (z.B. aus der Wikipedia-Enzyklopädie). Das Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) ist eine Abteilung des indischen Kulturministeriums, welche für die archäologische Erforschung sowie Erhaltung des Kulturguts Indiens verantwortlich ist. Das ASI ist der Nachfolger der Asiatic Society, welche 1784 vom britischen Archäologen Williams Jones gegründet wurde. 1788 wurde das Journal The Asiatic Researches zum ersten Mal publiziert. 1814 wurde das erste Museum in Bengalen gegründet. Das ASI in ihrer heutigen Form entstand 1861 während der britischen Kolonialadministration durch Alexander Cunningham in Zusammenarbeit mit Vizekönig Canning. Zur damaligen Zeit war Afghanistan noch in ihrem Verantwortungsgebiet. Nach der indischen Unabhängigkeitserklärung wurde das ASI unter dem Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites And Remains Act 1958 in die Regierungsarbeit eingegliedert. Unter dem Antiquity and Art Treasure Act 1972 werden derzeit 3636 Stätten von nationaler Wichtigkeit durch das ASI betreut. Das ASI muss sich seit der Teilung des indischen Subkontinents mit dem Abzug der Briten 1947 vor allem politischen Problemen stellen. So können beispielsweise viele archäologische Fundorte der Indus-Kultur nur eingeschränkt oder

Manusm¿ti
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Manusm¿ti or Manusmriti, also known as M¿nava- Dharmä¿stra, is the earliest metrical work of the Dharmä¿stra textual tradition of Hinduism.It is one of the most controversial works of Hindu literature owing to its discrimination against women and Shudras. Generally known in English as the Laws of Manu, it was first translated into English in 1794 by Sir William Jones, an English Orientalist and judge of the British Supreme Court of Judicature in Calcutta. The text presents itself as a discourse given by the sage called Manu to a group of seers, or rishis, who beseech him to tell them the "law of all the social classes" (1.2). Manu became the standard point of reference for all future Dharmä¿stras that followed it. According to Hindu tradition, the Manusmriti records the words of Brahma. By attributing the words to supernatural forces, the text takes on an authoritative tone as a statement on Dharma, in opposition to previous texts in the field, which were more scholarly.

Sanskrit in the West
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The study of Sanskrit in the Western world began in the 17th century. Some of Bhart¿hari's poems were translated into Portuguese in 1651.

In 1785 Charles Wilkins published an English translation of the Bhagavad Gita, which was the first time a Sanskrit book had been translated directly into a European language. In 1786 Sir William Jones, who had founded The Asiatic Society two years earlier, delivered the third annual discourse; in his often-cited "philologer" passage, he noted similarities between Sanskrit, Ancient Greek and Latin-an event which is often cited as the beginning of comparative linguistics, Indo-European studies, and Sanskrit philology.
