Abstract:

Abstract Archaeological Surveys in India and Archaeological Survey of India are not one and the same. The former started by the government in the first half of the nineteenth century, whereas the latter was established in 1871. Officers of Colonial government, baffled by the rich cultural heritage of great antiquity strewn all around, knew its great value and started collecting them. Their searches associated with documentation and study form an important phase in the development of archaeology in India. History of this phase, falling under the period termed as modern history, perhaps did not

Abstract:

Indian archaeology adopted sounder and viable conceptual tools for fieldwork in the later nineteenth century. The name of Sir Alexander Cunningham, the two times head of Archaeological Survey of India, is of special significance in this connection. This paper particularly focuses on his methods for archaeological survey and data collection. In the first place, Cunningham’s arrival into India has been traced. Next, his archaeological methods and approach have been delineated. It is followed by outlining what Cunningham did at Taxila especially in line with his conceptual understanding. Finally,

Abstract:

Incomplete datasets curtail the ability of archaeologists to investigate ancient landscapes, and there are archaeological sites whose locations remain unknown in many parts of the world. To address this problem, we need additional sources of site location data. While remote sensing data can often be used to address this challenge, it is enhanced when integrated with the spatial data found in old and sometimes forgotten sources. The Survey of India 1” to 1-mile maps from the early twentieth century are one such dataset. These maps documented the location of many cultural heritage sites througho

This research paper explores the historical significance of the ancient city of Besnagar, located in Madhya Pradesh, India. Through archaeological excavations conducted by the Archaeological Survey of India, valuable artifacts and structures have been unearthed, shedding light on the city's prominence during the Mauryan and Shunga periods. Besnagar, believed to be a distorted form of Vaishya Nagar, was likely a prominent center of Vaishnavism in ancient times. Situated between the Betwa and Bes rivers, the city was protected by a nearly one-kilometer-long defensive wall on the Udayagiri Road.

The Harappan civilisation that was discovered in the early 1920s became a matter of intense debate in the decades following the partition of India in 1947.

And it inaugurated an era of academic politics in which Pakistani scholars and politicians claimed a five thousand years old antiquity for their nation-state based on the Harappan civilisation. On the other hand, the Indian archaeologists began searching for the Harappa

Abstract The Muṇḍeśvarī temple near Bhabuā in southwest Bihar is an octagonal, sandstone monument without a spire.

Few monuments survive from this nascent stage of structural North Indian temple architecture, and the Muṇḍeśvarī temple is intriguing because it is an anomaly in terms of its size, composition, and the shape of its plan.

Heinrich Lüders, the renowned German Indologist and epigraphist, attributed this inscription to the Dharmaguptaka sect/school. Despite this early attribution, the Monastery’s precise sectarian characteristics have remained largely un

Abstract:

Fungi have an important role in the biodegradation of monuments made of stone. The effect of fungi in the degradation of different types of stone has been widely investigated and demonstrated. Fungi can provide bio-protection for stone surfaces, act as a barrier against weathering, retain moisture, increase waterproofing, reduce thermal stress and corrosion, and absorb pollutants. Nevertheless, the evaluation of biodegradation versus bio-preservation cannot be generalized, as it may vary according to the behavior of different species, as well as that degradation may be influenced by both the l
