About the Book
Beyond the classification of the Indian iconography some sculptures are not properly accounted and neglected as unimportance. That insisted the Author to
reflect in “The Unknown Iconography of India”. The Author has broken the barrier of the
Neolithic era and has crossed the line yonder that. Out of four classification of
iconography the Author has created a new classification of iconography as the Ancient
Iconography of India by including Ekapāda Bhairava of Bhairon Pāhād of Ghudar in the
district of Balangir, Odisha and the iconography of Lord Jagannath of Puri, Odisha and
have fixed the date circa C. 9000 B.C.-7000 B.C.; may be much more back to the era of
Rāmāyana. Ekapāda Bhairava of Bhairon Pāhād is the only and unique Ekapāda Bhairava
sculpture of India where Bhairon Pāhād was an epicenter of the Tantric rituals. “The
Unknown Iconography of India” shall compel the scholars to think over for its
justification.
