Ancient Site Sravasti
MANOJ KUMAR SAXENA ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF INDIA LUCKNOW CIRCLE The Site The site is located (N27⁰ 31’. 150”; E82⁰ 02’. 504”) on the alluvium flood plains of River Achiravati (Rapti), about 195 km east of Lucknow and 15km district headquarter Sravasti (at Bhinga) of Uttar Pradesh. Historical Background of the Site Sravasti was the capital of the ancient kingdom of Kosala. The earliest references of the city are available in Ramayana and Mahabharata as a prosperous city in the kingdom of Kosala. It is said to have derived its name from a legendary king Sarvasta of solar race who is stated to have founded the city. Therefore, it became ‘Savatthi’ or Sravasti. In the 6th century BC, during the reign of Presenajit, the place rose to fame due to its association with Buddha and Mahavira and became one of the eight holy places of Buddhist pilgrimage. During the days of Buddha its prosperity reached the peak under the powerful ruler of Prasenaji. In the Mahaparinibnana-Sutta Sravasti is mentioned as one of the six important cities where Buddha had a large followers. Buddha is said to have spent 24 or 25 rainy seasons (varshavas) here after his disciple Sudatta Anathapindika built a monastery for him at Jetavana. Historical Background of Excavations The ruins of Sravasti remained forgotten until they were brought to light and identified by Sir Alexander Cunningham in 1863. Subsequently, the site was excavated by several scholars, Marshal (1909-14), K.K. Sinha (1959), Lal Chand Singh (1991-98), Kansai University, Japan and Later by the Excavation Branch Patna in the first decade of this century. -

Chitrakoot, Satna, M.P.India4 *Corresponding Author ABSTRACT: Remote Sensing and GIS is well-knowntechnology for establishment of flood inundation model for planners and decision makers for flood management. Generally, flood is submerging of water in a normally dry area. There are many factors responsible for flood such as rainstorms, slow water run-off, intensity of rainfall, duration of rainfall, catchment size, earthquakes, broken dams etc. Uttar Pradesh is one of the states which facing flood problem every year because of over flow of waterin rivers flowing through the state as Ganga, Yamuna, Ramganga, Gomti, Ghaghra, Sharda, Rapti, BhuriRapti etc. In 2013, 64 districts of Uttar Pradesh wereadversely affected by flood. Large area of agriculture land, population and household were affected by flood and waterlogging every year. The present study indicates the significance of Remote Sensing and GIS for developing a flood inundation model to assess the flood affected areas and numbers of flood inundated villages in each district in almost real time. -
