Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Indian Epigraphical GlossaryDeva-droṇī.—(IE 8-3; EI 10), usually taken to mean ‘a pro- cession of the images of gods’, or ‘procession or ablution of images’; but probably, ‘rent-free property of a temple’ (Ep. Ind., Vol. XXXIV pp. 143-44); cf. deva-droṇī-sambaddha (EI 23). A Prakrit inscription (A.R. Ep., 1959-60, No. B 173) has deva-doṇi data = Sanskrit deva-droṇī dattā. Note: deva-droṇī is defined in the “Indian epigraphical glossary” as it can be found on ancient inscriptions commonly written in Sanskrit, Prakrit or Dravidian languages.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
