[Gerard Huet's Sanskrit Heritage Site]
"The first service is dictionary access. The dictionary is a hypertext structure giving access to the Sanskrit lexicon, given with grammatical information. ... The second lexicon is a digital version of the Monier-Williams Sanskrit-English dictionary, a much more complete lexicon for the Sanskrit language. It is issued from Thomas Malten's digitalization of the Monier-Williams at Köln University, turned into an XML databank by Jim Funderburk, and finally adapted to the HTML Heritage look and feel by Pawan Goyal. The Sanskrit Heritage dictionary is thus mirrored in the Monier-Williams, which allows compatibility of the grammatical tools. ... This site [also] offers a number of linguistic services for the Sanskrit language, such as a Sanskrit Reader that parses Sanskrit transliterated text into Sanskrit banks of tagged hypertext. Various phonological and morphological tools are also provided, ...."

El ``Portal de la India Antigua'' es un nuevo sitio web que intenta ser una puerta abierta a una de las culturas más atractivas de la humanidad, todavía demasiado poco conocida en occidente no obstante el aumento del turismo y el poder de Internet. En español, a pesar de un creciente interés, es muy escaso el material de calidad disponible en la web y no muy abundante tampoco en las mejores librerías. Por ello, pienso que este sitio, redactado en español, puede ser de utilidad a los hispanohablantes pues recopila una gran cantidad de información dispersa en la web ofreciendo links comentados a unos 300 libros y a unos 150 artículos gratuitos (más en curso) sobre todos los aspectos de esta civilización tales como historia, religiones, filosofía, literatura, ciencia y arte.
