Emanuel,
We dont have very much hiis early, and the drawings like the ones from Ani-Akbar would at best leave something to guessing. There is of course the description of the katar - katara/jamdhar/narsingh-moth. My guess is, that the Europeians choose one name for daggers with this kind of hilt - but this is purely guessing. The katars shown in the Akbar miniatures are clearly jamdahars, and I try to research this, as there is something funny/strange, but I am not prepared to discuss anything about it yet. A pity I did not contact you when I was in Toronto some years ago :-). Jens |
