Northern India was the setting for the flowering of the Hindu, Buddhist and Jainist cultures, the settling of the Islamic civilisation and the formation of the Sikh congregation. The story of Indian civilisation is written in its stone: temples, palaces, mosques and mausoleums recount India's path in the language of art. This guide, thanks to photographs, drawings and plans, attempts to convey the emotions that this art evokes while illustrating the cultural matrix and context of the phenomenon.

Northern India: An Archaeological Guide

The Indian landscape is full of contradictions and complex historical changes and the past still plays a major role in the present. A knowledge of its ancient culture is essential to a better understanding of its present culture. This volume is a wide-ranging (both geographically and historically) encyclopedia of the treasures and heritage sites that the Indian sub-continent has to offer. It sweeps through great epochs from the third millennium BC to the advent of Islam and the legacy of different religions, invasions and civilizations.
