hi rabin-ka,
could you show a sample of this kamrupi script please? i remember
asking you once earlier, and i guess you have a sample by now.
i would also like to know where this script was used and for what
purpose. was it used for sanskrit or for other languages too.
since you mentioned devanagari, this picture shows the
bengali/assamese script moving away from the ancestors of devanagari
about a thousand years ago.

the script must have developed continuously from a thousand years
ago. which period of development have you fixed for the kamrupi
script?
