c6.s7.2

Of the several districts of Andhra, Kurnool had suggested a fairly good sequence of Stone Age tools and climatic fluctuation based on the collection of CAMMIADE and interpretation by BURKITT,⁶³ which holds good for the whole of the south-east India. Since then the district has been more fully surveyed by Professor ISAAC⁶⁴ of the Andhra Christian College (previously a student of the Deccan College). The tools from Giddalur have been described in detail,⁶⁵ whereas the adjoining district of Guntur, Nagarjunakonda which was hitherto famous for its historic monuments has also yielded, relics of several earlier Stone Age and other cultures including the Palaeolithic.
