摘要

这篇短文考察了菩提迦耶Daśanāmī吉里maṭha的历史，由于关注这个地方的佛教历史，它在很大程度上被忽视了。通过对19世纪殖民时期的记录、文件和材料的比较研究，本文探讨了其在殖民时期作为一个重要的宗教政治机构的历史和出现。在此过程中，它具体调查了横跨Gaya地区各个村庄的samādhis网络及其在确立其作为一个重要的zamindar地位方面的作用。

A Material History of the Daśanāmī Maṭha of Bodhgaya

This short essay examines the history of the Daśanāmī Giri maṭha of Bodhgaya, which has been largely ignored because of the focus on the Buddhist history of this site. Through a comparative study of nineteenth-century colonial accounts and documents, and material remains, this essay explores its claimed history and emergence as an important religio-political institution in the colonial period. In doing so, it specifically investigates network of samādhis across the villages of Gaya district and their role in establishing its position as an important zamindar.
