e/Edilpur Copperplate

Information
has gloss	eng: Description Edilpur Copperplate was found in a char land dug of Edilpur zamindari under Faridpur District of Bangladesh about 120 miles directly east of Calcutta. Baboo Conoylal Tagore of Tagore zamindari has presented the plate to Asiatic Society of Bengal in A.D. 1838, but now it is missing from collection. The plate is made of copper and was sharp in the letters, that the plate could have been long burred in the place where it was found. There was a seal, which is an elaborately executed figure of Siva in copper cast. The character of this inscription is rather less simple than the earlier alphabets of Pala dynasty. It is strictly the Gaur character which has descended the modern written Bengali. It is much to be regretted that when the first a font of Bengali type was prepared, the letters were made after the model of the running hand or written instead of this which may be called the print hand.
