Colonel Cunningham’s Archeological Survey Report for 1861-62, 
communicated by the Government of India. 
From 
Cotonen A. CUNNINGHAM, 
Archeological Surveyor to the Govt. of India, 
To 
THE SECY. THE GOVT. OF INDIA, 
Public Works Department. 
Dated Nynee Tal, 3rd June, 1862. 
SIR, 
T have the honor to transmit an abstract Report of my 
proceedings as Archzological Surveyor to tle Government of India, 
for the months of December 1861 and January 1862, being just one_ 
half of my work for the past season. The Abstract Report for the 
months of February and March will follow in about a fortnight hence. 
2. In explanation of the delay that has occurred in the submission 
of this Abstract of my proceedings, I beg to explain that I had at 
first intended to draw up only a mere outline of what had been done, 
but I found it quite impossible to make such a meagre statement 
sufficiently intelligible. I therefore deemed it better to draw up a 
more detailed Report, which should give a tolerably full account of 
all the more interesting and important discoveries at once, leaving 
all the maps, detailed drawings, and inscriptions, to accompany my 
complete Report, which will be submitted on or before the Ist of 
October next. That month I propose to devote to the gleaning up 
of as much information as possible, regarding the numerous places 
which I am to visit during the next season.
