War in Ancient India c9.5

- **Language:** English

### [c9.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.dikshitar-1944.c9.5)

We shall, for the purpose of our present study, bring all wars under three heads. These are land warfare, naval warfare, and aerial warfare. Some may feel sceptic about aerial wars in ancient India; but the scepticism vanishes into thin air if the material available is properly analysed and studied. This may be regarded as the āsura element in the mānuṣa war; but we shall see more of this in the sequel.
