Archaeology of Religion in South Asia by Birendra Nath Prasad Pdf

In the religious landscape of early medieval (c. AD 600-1200) Bihar and Bengal, poly-religiosity was generally the norm than an exception, which entailed the evolution of complex patterns of inter-religious equations. Buddhism, Brahmanism and Jainism not only coexisted but also competed for social patronage, forcing them to enter into complex interactions with social institutions and processes. Through an analysis of the published archaeological data, this work explores some aspects of the social history of Buddhist, Brahmanical and Jaina temples and shrines, and Buddhist stūpas and monasteries in early medieval Bihar and Bengal. This archaeological history of religions questions many ‘established’ textual reconstructions, and enriches our understanding of the complex issue of the decline of Buddhism in this area.

Land and Society in Early South Asia by Ryosuke Furui Pdf

This volume explores the process of social changes which unfolded in rural society of early medieval Bengal, especially the formation of stratified land relations and occupational groups which later got systematised as jātis. One of the first books to systematically reconstruct the early history of the region, this book presents a history of the economy, polity, law, and social order of early medieval Bengal through a comprehensive study of land and society. It traces the changing power relations among constituents of rural society and political institutions, and unravels the contradictions growing among them. The author describes the changing forms of agrarian development which were deeply associated with these overarching structures and offers an in-depth analysis of a wide range of textual sources in Sanskrit and other languages, especially contemporary inscriptions pertaining to Bengal. The volume will be an essential resource for researchers and academics interested in the history of Bengal, and the social and economic history of early South Asia.

Excavating Waves and Winds of (ex)change by Shahnaj Husne Jahan Pdf

This volume offers a chronological overview of maritime trade across the region of 'Bengal' to the first half of the 16th century AD, asking: which nodal points or ports were engaged in that trade? What were the exports and imports of the region? What were the media of exchange? What maritime vessels were employed and how were they constructed? How were ships navigated? Which maritime routes connected the ports of 'Bengal'? Who were the traders and what was their operative milieu? In the pursuit of answers to these questions, the work adopts the following methodology: extensive field-investigation of archaeological sites; study of artifacts indicative of maritime trade; synthesis of literature on epigraphic and numismatic findings, archaeological explorations and excavations; ethnographic field-level investigation on traditional maritime practices of contemporary communities; study of physiographic and geo-morphological features; and survey of available literary evidence pertaining to maritime trade.
