Plaintext corpus of Pyu inscriptions

<p>This is a text file of readings of all known Pyu-language inscriptions. The readings were originally by Arlo Griffiths, Julian Wheatley, and Marc Miyake, and have been subsequently modified by Marc Miyake.<br> <br> <em>NB: This file does not contain any readings of non-Pyu language inscriptions found at Pyu archeological sites. Nor does it contain readings of non-Pyu language portions of multilingual inscriptions containing Pyu. It is intended for simple text searches of the legible subset of the Pyu corpus.</em><br> <br> The file has three columns:<br> <br> <strong>1. Inscription number</strong>&nbsp;(in the numbering of Griffiths et al. [2017] with leading zeroes:&nbsp;https://zenodo.org/record/1478504 )<br> <br> <strong>2. Line number</strong><strong>&nbsp;</strong>(hyphens indicate that an inscription has only one line)<br> <br> <strong>3. Transcription</strong>&nbsp;(in the system of&nbsp;Griffiths et al. [2017]:&nbsp;https://zenodo.org/record/1478504 )<br> <br> The reading of inscription 39 has been substantially expanded and revised since 2017. There&nbsp;also have been various small changes in the readings of other inscriptions since 2017. The readings in this file supersede readings in any earlier Zenodo uploads<br> <br> A changelog, to do list, and list of unread inscriptions is at the bottom.</p>
