To these—Drs. Z. D. ANSARI and S. B. DEO and K. D. BANERJEE, N. ISSAC, R. V. JOSHI, A. P. KHATRI, M. S. MATE, V. N. MISRA, G. C. MOHAPATRA, and G. G. MUJUMDAR and S. N. RAJGURU, Shri R. SINGH and the late Dr. B. SUBBARAO—the writer is indebted in no small measure. Though the various projects of explorations and excavations carried out at the Deccan College were initiated and guided by the writer, still, it was the completion of each of the projects, either singly or jointly, that has contributed to new knowledge. A special further acknowledgement is necessary when it is realised that some of these works are still unpublished and remain in the form of theses or reports under preparation. Every exploration by a pupil has given the author an opportunity to study new sites in different regions of India, such as Bellary, Karnatak, Kurnool, Malwa, Rajputana, Gujarat, the Panjab, Orissa, and Bengal. Thus it is the team work and co-operation which has helped the writer to produce this work.
