c13.s3.3

Apart from the mass of "pygmy implements" and other casual collections from different parts of India, we have fairly well-observed material from only two areas: Gujarat, and Tinnevelly District at the southern tip of India. From Central India, particularly from the tribal and forested hills, various collections have been made, notably by Gordon, but as we have said, further light on the sequence of cultures can only be shed from those of the perennial nuclear regions or areas of attraction and not "culs de sac". Unfortunately the evidence from the latter has been used to the prejudice of general studies in sequence and chronology.
