Websites about Classical Sanskrit, which was once considered to be the parent language of Indo-European languages (together with Avestan). It's history starts from 15 century B.C.. Devanagari script is the most wide used nowadays (Bengali was used and still is used in Calcutta for the same purpose).
Sites devoted to the Saraiki language, spoken by 15-30 million people in Pakistan, as well as by 60,000 in India, where it is also known as Multani. The language has also been considered as a dialect of Panjabi, but Ethnologue now considers it a language in its own right (code SKR). I use Ethnologue as the authority for calling the language Saraiki - the first site submitted on the language actually calls it Seraiki.
