Sannati and Kanaganahalli: donors and Buddhist institutions

Reviewed place and institutional names are retained; no otherwise unknown ancient self-designation is invented.

Kalaburagi's heritage account distinguishes the Bhima-side settlement discoveries from the nearby Buddhist monument. They should not be collapsed into one building. DHARMA's drum-slab edition compares fragments and proposed readings. A restored name or phrase is an editorial interpretation, not intact testimony.

Monastic, donor-inscription and regional settlement context Early historic centuries around the beginning of the Common Era; later research distinguished Stupa sculpture, settlement discoveries and edited Brahmi donor inscriptions Kalaburagi, Karnataka: approximate public-town or distant institutional orientation, not an excavation, burial, sacred-site, cave-entrance, private compound, underwater or vulnerable-deposit location; never a territorial, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, political, religious, sovereignty, caste, fishing, water-rights or route boundary. The orientation may be far from the archaeological context. No access, collecting, ritual or travel permission is implied.

Foyers, institutions, artisanat et paysages connectés

Connexions de plateaux, fluviales, côtières et océaniques

Organisation politique et échelle communautaire

Donors, religious institutions, craftspeople and royal networks contributed at different scales; no single inscription represents the whole Bhima valley.

Transformation ultérieure, patrimoine vivant et réception moderne

Living communities and religious or heritage institutions retain their own authority. This atlas cannot establish identity, caste, religion, ancestry, descent, recognition or membership. Sannati and Kanaganahalli are related but distinct contexts; edited donor fragments and royal representations are not neutral portraits of the entire population. Later research and events after 1500 CE are dated separately from the main context.

Several contexts Kalaburagi's heritage account distinguishes the Bhima-side settlement discoveries from the nearby Buddhist monument. They should not be collapsed into one building.
