About the Book
Sindhu-Sarasvati
Civilization: New Perspectives. A Volume in Memory of Dr Shikaripur
Ranganatha Rao is a compilation of the papers presented at the
International Conference on the Sindhu-Sarasvati Civilization: A Reappraisal held in Loyola
Marymount University, Los Angeles, during 21-22 February 2009. Here, eminent
archaeologists, philologists, anthropologists and historians re-examine recent
researches and existing theories upon the nature of the interrelation between
the two most ancient pre- historic cultures of the South Asian subcontinent:
the Indus (Sindhu or Harappan
Civilization) and the Vedic Civilization. The scholars touch upon areas of
consensus and contentions, with a tentatively conclusive inter- disciplinary
understanding about the pluralistic culture and shared identity of the two riverine cultures between 3000 and 1500 BCE.
They rightly swing the balance of the argument away
from the archaic and now exploded Aryan Invasion Theory to the well-grounded
Vedic Sarasvati milieu as the home of the Harappan Civilization. Thus it opens a new window to the
cultural content of the prehistoric period of the subcontinent.
The eminent personalities that have contributed
include Ashok Aklujkar, Shiva G. Bajpai,
Giacomo Benedetti, R.S. Bisht,
Edwin Bryant, Michel Danino, Subhash
Kak, Robin Bradley Kar, Nicholas Kazanas, Mark [onathan Kenoyer, Prem Kishore Saint, Jim J. Shaffer, Diane A. Lichtenstein, Shrikant Talageri, Lavanya Vamsani as well as Sundara Ad
"Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
