This volume is the result of an international conference organized by the South Asia Institute at the University of Texas. Patrick Olivelle has collected and edited the best papers to emerge from the conference. Part I of the book looks at what can be construed from archeological evidence. Part II concerns itself with the textual evidence for the period. Taken together, these essays offer an unprecedented look at Indian culture and society in this distant epoch.
As one would expect from the capable editorship of Patrick Olivelle, the book is a landmark contribution to the study of early Indian history and culture ... historians will be discussing the many ideas this book contains for many years to come. * Michael Willis, Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society *
