Description:
|
Anonymous and undated manuscript entitled Risālah-'i Tīrandāzī (Treatise on Archery), was likely completed in India in the late 18th century. The volume was formerly held in the royal library of the kings of Awadh in Lucknow and bears the seals of Nāṣir al-Dīn Ḥaydar Shāh (r. 1827–1837) and Amjad ‘Alī Shāh (r. 1842–1847). The same text, under a variant title of Qānūn-i Tīr Andākhtan (The Rules of Archery), is also found in a composite miscellany manuscript entitled Majmu‘ah-'i Rasā'il (Collection of Treatises) in the Bodleian Library, (Ouseley Add. 68, folios 421a–424a, see Sachau and Ethe's catalogue, no. 1241).
