Note 188 — Chapter II · SCULPTURE. (continued 2)
Walter Armstrong translation
On the subject of these great hunts and their arrangements, see Rawlinson, The Five Great Monarchies, vol. i. pp. 505–512. The custom is still kept up in Eastern countries, and their personnel is pretty much the same as it was in antiquity. See Chardin, Voyage en Perse (Langles’ edition), vol. iii. p. 399; and Rousselet, L’Inde des Rajahs, pp. 202, 464, 468.
