The Archaeology of Buddhism involves the recovery and scientific investigation of the material remains of past cultures that can illuminate the periods, events and other descriptions mentioned in the religious tests. It is hoped that this volume will underscore the imperative need for institutionalizing the archaeology of Buddhism as a specialized branch of the study of our shared heritage, and will promote a better appreciation of the archaeological heritage of Buddhism that binds the SAARC nations with a common historical and cultural threads. The book is divided into 6 parts Country Reports On Recent Discoveries; Revising Stupa; Buddhist Archaeology And The Society; Archaeology Of Buddhist Monasteries; Mapping Buddhist Archaeologivcal Sites; Buddhist Archaeology, Art And Architecture.
