Probably the best atlas is the Historical Atlas of South Asia by Joseph 
Schwartzberg, which is now online.

Subject: Re: [INDOLOGY] Maps of Ancient India

Hi, Jarrod,

I cannot help you in this case, though I know the Jesuits made some maps of 
India in the 17th century.
I think the most knowledgeable about Indian maps is Susan Gole, but I don't 
have her address.

Best luck,

Jean Michel

Dear Colleagues

I'm in need of two maps of 1) "Ancient India," and 2) "Mauryan Empire under 
Aśoka" for a chapter on "Warfare in Ancient India" (forthcoming Cambridge 
History of War). One of the editors passed away unexpectedly a few year ago and 
we cannot identify the sources of the maps he produced for my chapter.

If you have high quality maps and would let me use or reproduce them (with 
explicit email permission), I would be externally grateful (and acknowledge you 
in the chapter). Or can you point me to a public source. I can't see anything 
in WikiCommons.

Please email me off-list!

Cheers

Jarrod
