Book excerpt: The Archaeological Excavations of Jammu and Kashmir: Discovering Ancient Civilizations, Artifacts, and Architectural Marvels Through Archaeological Excavations is a book I am presenting with tremendous satisfaction and a deep feeling of fulfillment. As the project's creator, I am very honored to be able to share the results of years of investigation, study, and unwavering curiosity about this wonderful region's rich historical past. Jammu and Kashmir has long enthralled historians, archaeologists, and enthusiasts with its breathtaking landscapes and varied cultural tapestry. My academic career has been motivated by a desire to discover the long-lost secrets of its ancient civilizations and to solve the mysteries buried under its soil. The result of their unwavering effort to shed light on the past and highlight the great legacy of people who previously flourished in our country is this book. I have had the good fortune to collaborate with eminent colleagues, archaeologists, historians, and local authorities along my adventure, whose essential advice and insights have enhanced this work.

This book was released on 2018-09-14 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kashmir is a land of fabled beauty and eternal romance. It is blessed by nature with beauteous scenery, wondrous fertility and salubrious climate. Writers describe it as "One of the finest countries upon which the sun shines" and "The Sub-Alpine region of Asia's Italy" and the "The unsurpassed land for its scenery." Kashmir is verily "the terrestrial Paradise of the indies", a fairy-land, where each curve presents a grand picture, and every horizon a new scene, each leaf a distinct lesson and each flower a new look. The poets have described Kashmir as a garden land of picturesque scenery, lovely landscapes, unrivalled vistas, majestic forests, green pastures, shimmering waters of vast, silent and transparent lakes and rivers, perennial snows, mighty chains of snow-clad mountains, rumbling cataracts and roaring waterfalls.

This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hindu-Buddhist Sculpture of Ancient Kashmir and Its Influences is primarily based on the study of the largely unpublished corpus of sculpture, mostly of stone, in the Sri Pratap Singh Museum in Srinagar, and of other examples in situ elsewhere in the valley. The disparate nature and fragmentary condition of these sculptures as well as their artistic and iconographical influences have for long defied accurate analysis. The method used in the classification of these sculptures is based on close analysis of their style concentrating on recurring features such as facial and physical typology, modelling, dress and ornamentation. Comparisons are made with other examples of Kashmir bronze, ivory and stone sculpture in private and public collections both within India and abroad.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ancient earthquakes are pre-instrumental earthquakes that can only be identified through indirect evidence in the archaeological (archaeoseismology) and geological (palaeoseismology) record. Special Paper 471 includes a selection of cases convincingly illustrating the different ways the archaeological record is used in earthquake studies. The first series of papers focuses on the relationship between human prehistory and tectonically active environments, and on the wide range of societal responses to historically known earthquakes. The bulk of papers concerns archaeoseismology, showing the diversity of approaches, the wide range of disciplines involved, and its potential to contribute to a better understanding of earthquake history. Ancient Earthquakes will be of interest to the broad community of earth scientists, seismologists, historians, and archaeologists active in and around archaeological sites in the many regions around the world threatened by seismic hazards. This Special Paper frames in the International Geoscience Programme IGCP 567 'Earthquake Archaeology: Archaeoseismology along the Alpine-Himalayan Seismic Zone.'"--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Hindu Rulers, Muslim Subjects written by Mridu Rai and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-12-31 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disputed between India and Pakistan, Kashmir contains a large majority of Muslims subject to the laws of a predominantly Hindu and increasingly "Hinduized" India. How did religion and politics become so enmeshed in defining the protest of Kashmir's Muslims against Hindu rule? This book reaches beyond standard accounts that look to the 1947 partition of India for an explanation. Examining the 100-year period before that landmark event, during which Kashmir was ruled by Hindu Dogra kings under the aegis of the British, Mridu Rai highlights the collusion that shaped a decisively Hindu sovereignty over a subject Muslim populace. Focusing on authority, sovereignty, legitimacy, and community rights, she explains how Kashmir's modern Muslim identity emerged. Rai shows how the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir was formed as the East India Company marched into India beginning in the late eighteenth century. After the 1857 rebellion, outright annexation was abandoned as the British Crown took over and princes were incorporated into the imperial framework as junior partners. But, Rai argues, scholarship on other regions of India has led to misconceptions about colonialism, not least that a "hollowing of the crown" occurred throughout as Brahman came to dominate over King. In Kashmir the Dogra kings maintained firm control. They rode roughshod over the interests of the vast majority of their Kashmiri Muslim subjects, planting the seeds of a political movement that remains in thrall to a religiosity thrust upon it for the past 150 years.

Vaisnavism Carved Its Due Place In The Minds Of The People In The Valley With Equal Amount, If Not More Than That Of Buddhism And 'Saivism.

Download or read book The Files of Kashmiri Shias written by Ruhool Ahmad Kawa and published by Ruhool Ahmad Kawa. This book was released on 2023-03-16 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book highlights the challenges faced by the Shia community in Kashmir and other parts of the world, and calls for greater awareness, understanding, and action to address these issues. The book begins by providing an overview of the Shia community in Kashmir, which represents a significant minority within the predominantly Sunni Muslim region. Despite their numerical minority, Shias have played an important role in the cultural, social, and political fabric of Kashmir for centuries. However, the community has also faced significant challenges, including discrimination, marginalization, and violence, particularly in the context of the ongoing conflict in the region.The author then delves into the specific challenges faced by the Shia community in Kashmir. These include issues related to political representation, economic development, and social exclusion. The author describes how the government and society have largely ignored the concerns of the Shia community, leaving them vulnerable to discrimination andviolence.One of the most significant examplescited in the book is the 2019 rape case, in which a Shia girl was allegedly raped by a man. The perpetrator was supported by his community,which led to tensions and violence in the region.The book argues that such incidents highlight the vulnerability of the Shia community and the urgent need for greater protection and support.The book also discusses the potential consequences of Kashmir falling under Pakistani control or becoming liberated. In either case, the author argues that the situation for the Shia community could become even more precarious, with the potential for violence and discrimination to increase. The book emphasizes the need for government and society to work together to address these issues and ensure that the community's rights are protected.Finally, the book discusses the situation of Shia Muslims in other countries, such as Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Saudi Arabia. The author describes the discrimination and persecution that Shias often face in these countries, including violence, harassment, and exclusion from political and economic power. The book argues that the challenges faced by the Shia community in Kashmir are not unique, and that there is a broader pattern of discrimination and marginalization that needs to be addressed.Overall, the book provides a detailed analysis of the challenges faced by the Shia community in Kashmir and other parts of the world. It highlights the need for greater awareness, understanding, and action to address these issues, and emphasizes the importance of protecting the rights of vulnerable communities

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kashmir is one of the longest-standing conflicts yet to be resolved by the international community. In 2000, Bill Clinton declared it the most dangerous place in the world and since then the situation continues to escalate. Positioned between India, Pakistan and China – three nuclear powers – Kashmir is the most militarized zone on the planet. Against this backdrop, the urgency to understand what Jammu and Kashmir means to those who actually belong to its territory has increased. This book not only helps readers navigate subtleties in a complex part of the world but is the first of its kind – written for a global audience from local perspectives, which to date have been sorely lacking.

This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central point that this volume makes is that much of what happened in Jammu & Kashmir in the critical first few years (1947-53) needs a more careful reassessment. It is argued that there were little voices of ordinary people that should have been heard but were ignored. The political discourse that took centre stage even as it appeared more assertive and representative of mass public opinion was, however, as is now clear only a clever and misleading political move. Much of the source material upon which the author has based his study has till now remained unstudied and uncited – rare hard to find books, pamphlets, articles in journals, magazines and newspapers, official and party reports and so on. The volume takes the reader back in time to a kind of ring side seat. Kashmir’s cultural and historical legacy, the invasion, the issue of the plebiscite, the United Nations and the ceasefire, the Praja Parishad and most important of all the political scene and its key players – Prime Minister Nehru, Dr Syama Prasad Mookerjee and Sheikh Abdullah. Based on the nature of its sources the volume breaks free of a stereotyped approach to understanding the origin of what we commonly term today as the ‘Kashmir problem’. The volume argues that contemporary views recorded as they are in the heat of the moment with natural spontaneity often contain hidden lines and new light. Not surprisingly contemporary versions tell us a story very different from mainstream conventional writings on Jammu & Kashmir. This timely volume will radically influence the existing discourse on Jammu & Kashmir.
