In fact it is very difficult for you to even think of such times. It is for this reason the study of history is necessary. History tells us the life - story of man from the earliest times to the present day .It tells us when the first man appeared on earth, how he lived through the ages and from an uncivilized creature become a civilsed man. Its study tells us of people, their lives, their thoughts, about what they did to earn their livelihood etc. In fact without the study of history it would be very difficult for us to know about our ancestors. Man has evolved over millions of years from a stooping, ape-like creature. Many physical changes appeared during this time. An important change was the ability of the first man-like creature to balance on his feet, and stand walk erect. This freed his hands. So, he Uttarakhand Open University 2 INDIAN HISTORY, SOCIETY AND CULTURE BTTM 104 could pick up and throw things. His thumb evolved. It could move in a direction apposite to his other fingers and close in on them. This helped him handle objects better than other animals. His brain size increased as well. He learnt to understand and adapt himself to his surroundings. Archaeologists have discovered remains from the early years of man’s evolution in different parts of the world, including India. They are mainly in the form of rock shelters, stone and bone tools, skeletal remains of human beings, and bones and horns of animals. In those times, the material most widely used for making tools was stone, which was easily available. This is why that period is called the Stone Age. Apart from stone, man used bone, wood and antler (deer horn) to make tools. 1.2 OBJECTIVES After reading this unit, you should be able to learn:- 1. What is history? 2. Introduce history as a very interesting and fascinating subject. 3. Learn to handle history, a potent weapon in the hands of public man like you 4. Recall the past which includes the evolution of man from an uncivilized creature to his present civilized way of living. 5. Explain the time sense and divide history into three periods-Pre- history, proto- history and historic. 1.3 MEANING AND CONCEPT OF THE PRE, PROTO AND HISTORIC HISTORY Pre-history - History for which no written record is available. Proto-history - History for which we have written record but can't read. Historic-history - History for which we have written record and we can read. Uttarakhand Open University 3 INDIAN HISTORY, SOCIETY AND CULTURE BTTM 104 "Therefore history is a carefully written record of the past events. It is the story of man's progress from the distant past to the present" History is a record of man and his various accomplishments. Certain portion of this record is available in written shape in the form of various documents and literary works and is known as history. This represents only a partial record of the achievements of mankind and provides us information only about the last five thousand years. In addition to this there are certain unwritten sources like the physical remains of the people, tools and implements, and other artifacts, monuments, paintings etc. which provide us information about the man during the long period which preceded the written history. This period extended over several hundred thousand years and is termed as pre-history. The pre-history period is important because of the physical evolution of man. It may be noted that certain features of the physical evolution of man. It may be noted that certain features of the pre- historic life such as hunting and food gathering are present even today amongst certain natives of Australia and Bushmen of Africa. The history of India, like the annals of every other country, should therefore begin with an account of the times when men first settled in this land. But history proper only deals with facts and facts can only be known from records of some kind or other. We cannot know the history of any people who have left no record of their existence. There may have been people or peoples who lived in India in primitive times, but the evidence of whose existence has not yet been discovered. For the present, at any rate, they must be left out of account altogether. We shall only deal with those inhabitants of India whose existence is known to us from some records they have left behind. To begin with, these records consist almost solely of the rude implements which the people used in their daily lives. Uttarakhand Open University 4 INDIAN HISTORY, SOCIETY AND CULTURE BTTM 104 1.4 PRE - HISTORIC AGES IN INDIA It is now generally accepted that India was one of the earliest abodes of man, although the scholars have not been able to agree on the exact locality where man first lived in India. According to certain scholars that the last stage in the development of mammal into man took place in the Sewalikhills, while the others hold that South India, the heart of ancient Gondwana was the original place of man. Certain other scholars hold that Dandakaranaya, which appears in Ramayana as the abode of man-like monkeys was the area of man’s evolution in India. But as the oldest implements of man have been found in Dekhan it has been assumed that if man was evolved at all in India, he must have done so in the pleateau immediately to the south of the Dandak forest. T.P. Sirinyas Aiyangar also says that “man could not have originated in the Himalayan cold or the dense forests or low river valleys as they lacked all those roots and nuts on which early men subsisted.” Though the scholars have not been able to reach any agreement regarding the locality where the man first appeared in India, even an eminent authority like Sir Harry Johnston has admitted that India was “most probably the land where the evolution of man took place.” This period of human history has been described as the Eolithic age. During the Eolithic age the man had to compete with the wild beasts with which he lived. He designed stone weapons which are techniquelly known as Rostro-carinate (ridged like a beak), an implement with a broad posterior region narrowing interiorly into a quasi-vertical cutting edge. Most probably the weapons did exist even during the pre- human period because the baboons fought with sticks and stone. However, no human remains of the Eolithic Age have been found any where in the world. But certain implements have been found in different parts of the world which testify that the Eolithic culture was quite widespread. Uttarakhand Open University 5 INDIAN HISTORY, SOCIETY AND CULTURE BTTM 104 In India the scholars have assigned three finds to the Eolithic Age, viz. a set of fints discovered in a ravine in the slope of the Irawadi in Burma discovered in 1893; bouclier or Vindhyan sandstone discovered in the Narbada valley; and the Godavari chip or flake discovered in Hyderabad. The early history of man’s development has been divided into six ages, on the basis of the nature of the materials widely used and the methods of their production.

All we can claim with any degree of historical certainty is that Jesus died some time around Passover (perhaps a week or so before the feast) between 29 and 34 CE.

  • Hindu Management of the Dead and Covid-19
    HINDU MANAGEMENT OF THE DEAD AND COVID-19 INTRODUCTION HINDU MANAGEMENT OF THEHINDU DEAD AND COVID-19 The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has meant that last rites have to be accelerated and adapted to minimize the number of people involved, and close contact with the dead body is not possible without Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). This makes it even more challenging for family and friends of the deceased to cope with their loss. Lack of familiarity with cultural and religious practices on the part of personnel involved in dead body management can have serious consequences. This document will aid in understanding the Hindu perspective on management of the dead, and how last rites might be adapted to minimize the possible risk of further infection. HINDUISM Hinduism is one of the oldest religions in the world, and the third largest after Christianity and Islam, with adherents numbering around 1.15 billion or 15–16% of the world population. Outside its Indian heartland, Hinduism is the majority religion in Nepal, Mauritius and the Indonesian island of Bali, while Hindus form significant minorities in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bhutan, Malaysia and Singapore, and are otherwise spread in a sizeable diaspora across Asia, Europe, North America, the Caribbean and Africa.1 Hindu beliefs are highly diverse. Rather than one creed or unified system, Hinduism encompasses a vast diversity of religious beliefs and phenomena, encapsulated in scriptures ranging from the earliest Vedas through to the Upanishads, Puranas and epics such as the Mahabharata, Bhagavad Gita and Ramayana. Most Hindus believe that all living creatures have an Atman- variously a soul, self, spirit or essence- which is either one with or distinct from Brahman, variously the supreme soul, essence or first principle of all creation, depending on the school of thought.

  • Shiva's Waterfront Temples
    Shiva’s Waterfront Temples: Reimagining the Sacred Architecture of India’s Deccan Region Subhashini Kaligotla Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2015 Subhashini Kaligotla All rights reserved ABSTRACT Shiva’s Waterfront Temples: Reimagining the Sacred Architecture of India’s Deccan Region Subhashini Kaligotla This dissertation examines Deccan India’s earliest surviving stone constructions, which were founded during the 6th through the 8th centuries and are known for their unparalleled formal eclecticism. Whereas past scholarship explains their heterogeneous formal character as an organic outcome of the Deccan’s “borderland” location between north India and south India, my study challenges the very conceptualization of the Deccan temple within a binary taxonomy that recognizes only northern and southern temple types. Rejecting the passivity implied by the borderland metaphor, I emphasize the role of human agents—particularly architects and makers—in establishing a dialectic between the north Indian and the south Indian architectural systems in the Deccan’s built worlds and built spaces. Secondly, by adopting the Deccan temple cluster as an analytical category in its own right, the present work contributes to the still developing field of landscape studies of the premodern Deccan. I read traditional art-historical evidence—the built environment, sculpture, and stone and copperplate inscriptions—alongside discursive treatments of landscape cultures and phenomenological and experiential perspectives. As a result, I am able to present hitherto unexamined aspects of the cluster’s spatial arrangement: the interrelationships between structures and the ways those relationships influence ritual and processional movements, as well as the symbolic, locative, and organizing role played by water bodies.

  • Mahabharata Tatparnirnaya
    Mahabharatha Tatparya Nirnaya Chapter XIX The episodes of Lakshagriha, Bhimasena's marriage with Hidimba, Killing Bakasura, Draupadi svayamwara, Pandavas settling down in Indraprastha are described in this chapter. The details of these episodes are well-known. Therefore the special points of religious and moral conduct highlights in Tatparya Nirnaya and its commentaries will be briefly stated here. Kanika's wrong advice to Duryodhana This chapter starts with instructions of Kanika an expert in the evil policies of politics to Duryodhana. This Kanika was also known as Kalinga. Probably he hailed from Kalinga region. He was a person if Bharadvaja gotra and an adviser to Shatrujna the king of Sauvira. He told Duryodhana that when the close relatives like brothers, parents, teachers, and friends are our enemies, we should talk sweet outwardly and plan for destroying them. Heretics, robbers, theives and poor persons should be employed to kill them by poison. Outwardly we should pretend to be religiously.Rituals, sacrifices etc should be performed. Taking people into confidence by these means we should hit our enemy when the time is ripe. In this way Kanika secretly advised Duryodhana to plan against Pandavas. Duryodhana approached his father Dhritarashtra and appealed to him to send out Pandavas to some other place. Initially Dhritarashtra said Pandavas are also my sons, they are well behaved, brave, they will add to the wealth and the reputation of our kingdom, and therefore, it is not proper to send them out. However, Duryodhana insisted that they should be sent out. He said he has mastered one hundred and thirty powerful hymns that will protect him from the enemies.

  • Sri Ramakrishna & His Disciples in Orissa
    Preface Pilgrimage places like Varanasi, Prayag, Haridwar and Vrindavan have always got prominent place in any pilgrimage of the devotees and its importance is well known. Many mythological stories are associated to these places. Though Orissa had many temples, historical places and natural scenic beauty spot, but it did not get so much prominence. This may be due to the lack of connectivity. Buddhism and Jainism flourished there followed by Shaivaism and Vainavism. After reading the lives of Sri Chaitanya, Sri Ramakrishna, Holy Mother and direct disciples we come to know the importance and spiritual significance of these places. Holy Mother and many disciples of Sri Ramakrishna had great time in Orissa. Many are blessed here by the vision of Lord Jagannath or the Master. The lives of these great souls had shown us a way to visit these places with spiritual consciousness and devotion. Unless we read the life of Sri Chaitanya we will not understand the life of Sri Ramakrishna properly. Similarly unless we study the chapter in the lives of these great souls in Orissa we will not be able to understand and appreciate the significance of these places. If we go on pilgrimage to Orissa with same spirit and devotion as shown by these great souls, we are sure to be benefited spiritually. This collection will put the light on the Orissa chapter in the lives of these great souls and will inspire the devotees to read more about their lives in details. This will also help the devotees to go to pilgrimage in Orissa and strengthen their devotion.

There is clear evidence that the buildings of western sectors were laid out on a high artificial mud platform (80,000 square metres and 7 metres high in the case of Mohenjodaro), fortified with bastions and towers. The eastern sector too lay within a wall but the scale of fortification here was less impressive. "The practice of putting a wall around a settlement dates to the Early Harappan period but its division into two separately enclosed sectors appears to coincide with the Mature Harappan stage. Because the western sector is raised higher than the eastern one and it is enclosed, archaeologists suggest that it may have been reserved for public buildings, the performance of ceremonies, and the residences of the elites. The rest may have dwelt in the eastern sector which had closely built burnt-brick or mud-brick houses lining streets which are often more than ten metres wide and lanes which are less than two metres wide.
