    INDIAN ARCHAEOLOGY 1959-60 —A REVIEW EDITED BY A. GHOSH Director General of Archaeology in India PUBLISHED BY THE DIRECTOR GENERAL ARCHAEOLOGY SURVEY OF INDIA JANPATH, NEW DELHI 1996 First edition 1960 Reprint 1996 1996 ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF INDIA GOVERNMENT OF INDIA Price :Rs. 320.00 PRINTED AT BENGAL OFFSET WORKS, 335, KHAJOOR RAOD, NEW DELHI – 110005 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The present number of Indian Archaeology—A Review incorporates, as did the previous numbers, all the available information on the varied activities in the field of archaeology in the country during the preceding official year. My grateful thanks are due to all—heads of the archaeological organizations in States and Universities, of Museums and of Research Institutes, my colleagues in the Union Department of Archaeology and a few individuals—who supplied the material embodied in the following pages. I also thank those colleagues of mine who helped me in editing the Review and in seeing it through the press. Considerations of space and others factors do not always permit the printing of the reports in the form in which they are received. All care has been taken to see that the essential facts and views contained in these reports are not affected in the process of abridging, and in some cases rewriting, them; this ensures that the responsibility for the facts and their interpretation remains with those who supplied them. Nevertheless, editorial slips may have crept in here and there in spite of my endeavours to avoid them. For such slips I express my regret. New Delhi : The 11th October 1960 A.

  • The Shaping of Modern Gujarat
    A probing took beyond Hindutva to get to the heart of Gujarat THE SHAPING OF MODERN Many aspects of mortem Gujarati society and polity appear pulling. A society which for centuries absorbed diverse people today appears insular and patochiai, and while it is one of the most prosperous slates in India, a fifth of its population lives below the poverty line. J Drawing on academic and scholarly sources, autobiographies, G U ARAT letters, literature and folksongs, Achyut Yagnik and Such Lira Strath attempt to Understand and explain these paradoxes, t hey trace the 2 a 6 :E e o n d i n a U t V a n y history of Gujarat from the time of the Indus Valley civilization, when Gujarati society came to be a synthesis of diverse peoples and cultures, to the state's encounters with the Turks, Marathas and the Portuguese t which sowed the seeds ol communal disharmony. Taking a closer look at the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the authors explore the political tensions, social dynamics and economic forces thal contributed to making the state what it is today, the impact of the British policies; the process of industrialization and urbanization^ and the rise of the middle class; the emergence of the idea of '5wadeshi“; the coming £ G and hr and his attempts to transform society and politics by bringing together diverse Gujarati cultural sources; and the series of communal riots that rocked Gujarat even as the state was consumed by nationalist fervour. With Independence and statehood, the government encouraged a new model of development, which marginalized Dai its, Adivasis and minorities even further.

In 1722–1723, forces led by Khanthaji Kadani and Pilaji Gaekwad attempted to raid Sihor but were repelled by Maharaja Bhavsinhji Gohil. After the war Bhavsinhji realised the reason for repeated attack was the location of Sihor (old Bhavnagar). In 1823, he established a new capital near Vadva village, 20 km away from Sihor, and named it Bhavnagar. It was a carefully chosen strategic location because of its potential for maritime trade. Naturally, Bhavnagar City became the capital of Bhavnagar State Bhavnagar Boroz. The old town of Bhavnagar was a fortified town with gates leading to other important regional towns. It remained a major port for almost two centuries, trading commodities with Mozambique, Zanzibar, Singapore, and the Persian Gulf.
