rdf:type | lvont:Language |
rdfs:comment | Jain Prakrit is a term loosely used for the language of the Jain Agamas (canonical texts). The books of Jainism were written in the popular vernacular dialects (as opposed to Sanskrit which was the classical standard of Brahmanism), and therefore encompass a number of related dialects. Chief among these is Ardha Magadhi, which due to its extensive use has also come to be identified as the definitive form of Prakrit. Other dialects include versions of Maharashtri and Sauraseni.

rdfs:comment | This language was spoken in the Middle Indic period, and figures prominently in the literature of the Jains, and is used to write their scriptures. The Oriya languages are descended from this language. Though probably spoken from circa 600 BC to 100 AD, most works in the language can be dated much later, in the 5th century AD.
