Sher Shah, (1540-1545), was one of the most 
reraarkable, though one of the last of the Patan or 
Afghan Sovereigns of Northern India. His residence 
at Rohtas and his tomb at Sasseram in Behar, are 
both remarkable examples of his magnificence. The 
latter especially closes worthily a long series of Patan 
tombs which, though not so magnificent as those 
of their successors the Moguls, are generally more 
appropriate to their solemn purpose.

Frames 195 and 196 eontain examples of Maho- 
medan tombs in the south of India, where the style, 
though wanting in that purity which distin- 
guished it in the north, is not devoid of picturesque- 
ness and grandeur. Tippoo Sultan’s buildings 
sometimes betray the influence of European taste, 
which is always fatal in India.

Gulburgah was the Capital of the Bahmani dynasty 
of the Deccan from the year 1347 to 1525. Practi- 
cally, however, it had been superseded by the Nizam 
Shähi dynasty of Beejapore before the year 1500, and 
all its principal mosques and tombs belong to the 
Century and a half precedmg that last date. The 
Jumma Musjid is one of the most remarkable of its 
dass, and unique in its disposition, being lighted 
from the exterior instead of from a courtyard, as is 
universally the case in mosques of this importance 
in India.

of tombs and mosques found in Scind and the Delta 
of the Indus. They are not remarkable for their 
magnificence, but are interesting as showing the eon-

the architecture of India.

Juanpore was the Capital of one of the most 
splendid of the minor dynasties of the East. 
Though they existed only from 1394 to 1476, during 
these 82 years they embellished their Capital with a 
series of mosques, tombs, and public works, such as 
very few Indian cities can boast of. They have, too, 
all of them, a peculiar character that almost elevates 
their architecture into a separate style. Its princi 
pal charaeteristics are the sloping pyramidal form of 
their propylons, the absence of minarets, and the 
columnar arrangement of the courtyards of their 
mosques. These are so peculiar, that some have 
fancied these forms were derived from Buddhist 
architecture, but there seems no foundation for such 
an hypothesis.
