Ganguly  aNew Delhi :bAbhinav Publications,c2003.  a178 p. ;c24 cm.  aThis book examines the nature of historical writing in ancient India and evaluates the historiographical traditions of early Indian civilization. Ganguly challenges the view that ancient Indians lacked a historical sense by demonstrating how literary texts, inscriptions, coins, archaeology, and foreign accounts collectively contribute to reconstructing India's past. The work also discusses major historical controversies, including the Ramagupta problem, Gupta numismatics, and the use of epigraphic evidence in historical research.  aHistory of Ancient India.  aIndia--History--324 B.C.--1000 A.D.  cRBK  c63313d63313  00102ddc4071aSNULbSNULd2025-05-23g0.00l0o934 GANpG4323r2025-05-27 00:00:00w2025-05-23yRBKzProf. Romila Thapar's Collection
