Product Description



Arranged chronologically, and abundantly illustrated with expertly selected objects, this superb new overview connects today’s South Asia with its past. The narrative begins 1.5 million years ago, examines artefacts from the Indus Civilization, and follows the emergence of Buddhism, Jainism, Hinduism and Sikhism, as well as the arrival and flourishing of Islam and Christianity. The important history of textiles is traced from prehistory until today. The historic dynasties of both north and south are presented, while the Mughals and their colonial successors bring the narrative into our own times. The final chapter examines South Asia since independence through art, popular imagery and music.

This compelling visual history, from the rural life of the subcontinent to the splendour of dynastic empires, will inspire and inform everyone interested in the material culture of South Asia.
