India through Archeology

Excavating History

By Devika Chopra

“Superhero action carved on rocks . . .A headless statue . . .Royal inscriptions on pillars and copper plates . . .Glass fragments from a lost city . . .These may sound like clips from a fantasy thriller, but are in fact objects unearthed at archaeological sites across the country — and the stories they throw up are just as exciting!

This visually vibrant book has an interdisciplinary approach that goes beyond conventional subject boundaries. Showing the interconnectedness of ideas, events and issues, and cross-cultural influences — all based on archaeological findings — it encourages a more critical and holistic understanding of India’s multihued history.”
