Rock art, as one of our precious surviving art treasures is a vital archaeological source to study and analyse the cognitive evolution of the human intellect across the world. This volume is significant in a way that it addresses new ways for rock art research. It opens a new chapter in the history of studying the prehistoric and tribal art, with ample scope for the collaboration of archaeology with its allied and interdisciplinary subjects. The author tries to approach rock art with a view to reconstruct the lifestyle and environment of the people who created this art. This volume is mainly based on the decades of personal research of the author and the multidisciplinary documentation conducted by the IGNCA under his able guidance in the area. The documentation of rock art in Odisha well planned in a phased manner as the area to be covered was vast and the access to rock art sites was very difficult.

Hardbound. Etat : As New. New. Contents Preface. 1. Investigations into the Mesolithic and post Mesolithic settlements in the middle Mahanadi Valley Orissa/Pradeep K. Behera. 2. Excavations at Nuagarh Asurgarh a preliminary report/Sadasiba Pradhan. 3. Temples of Western Orissa/Prafulla Kumar Nayak i. Phase I Early temples. Phase II Medieval temples temples of Sambalpur. The present volume is a pioneering effort to unravel the rich archaeological potential of the middle Mahanadi Valley in Orissa that was traditionally considered terra incognita or an area of isolation. The area roughly extends from the Hirakud dam in Sambalpur District up to the Satkosia in Angul district. The present volume entitled Art and Archaeology of Orissa Recent Perspectives with a collection of three important research papers contributed by three senior scholars based on their field works negate this long standing hypothesis that culturally this was an area of isolation or of recent human penetration. Rather it was an important geo cultural region right from the pre historic times. P.K. Behera's extensive and intensive explorations along with a series of trial excavations conducted in the middle Mahanadi Valley have brought to limelight a large number of ancient settlements ranging in date from the Mesolithic to the early historical periods. Sadasiba Pradhan editor of the present volume presents the results of trial excavations conducted at Nuagarh a proto historic site in the middle Mahanadi Valley. Locally known as Asurgarh the site yielded material evidence from the Chalcolithic to the early historic periods. P.K. Nayak in his extensive study of the temples of Western Orissa tries to focus the regional variations and peculiarities in the domain of temple building an important cultural trait of the medieval period. Profusely illustrated with maps line drawings and photographs this volume presents a detailed cultural spectrum of the region and paces the way for further extensive research. This volume will fascinate students and scholars of art history and archaeology. 156 pp.…
