Current Studies On The Indus Civilization (vol 8 In Two Parts)

The first part of the eight volume of Current Studies on the Indus Civilization is an examination of inter-regional interaction and urbalism is the Greater Indus region of Pakistan and north-western India during the period that encompassed the development, existence and decline of South Asia's first urbanized society. The principal research objective is to identity the geologic sources from which the stone and metal artefacts excavated at Harappa - a site that grew from a small village to become one of the largest Indus Civilization cities, were most likely derived. The second part of the eighth volume of Current Studies on the Indus Civilization contains appendices and references. In it are the raw data used to generate over 2100 geologic provenience determinations for stone and metal artefacts from Harappa, as well as almost 120 determinations for artefacts from a number of other Indus Civilization or related sites.
