Edition: Delhi
₹ 1095.00
Title in ENGLISH : The century following Sasanka's death stands as an obscure period of the Bengal-Magadha region--matsyanyayam--with a succession of local conflicts and a multiplicity of independent sovereignities as well as a few invasions from outside. A noticeable event is Yasovarman's conquest of Kanauj, celebrated in the poem 'Gaudavaho', with two lines that possibly refers to the 'slaughter' of the king of Magadha, vassal of Gauda. The period of darkness came to an end in c.750 with the rise of the Palas. This book deals with the history and archaeology of Gauda, especially inscriptions, literary sources, sculptures, ceramics, and regional organizations of the period.
