No. 64548 Religious Co-existence Especially of Brahmanism and Buddhism at Thanesar (Kurukshetra) in Ancient period, on the basis of Literary and Archaeological evidence Manoj Kumar Research Scholar , Dept. of Ancient Indian History, Culture & Archaeology Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra,Haryana, India Abstract The present paper describes Co-existence of Religions especially of Brahmanism and Buddhism at Thanesar (Kurukshetra) in the Ancient period which is demonstrated on the basis of Literary and Archaeological sources. Thus, religion is an integral part of human life. It usually obeys the laws of inheritance as it is transferred on to the new generation from the prevailing one. However, time to time new religions and cults came into existence throughout the world and at many places, these cults and religions lived together peacefully (with harmony), but in some time, these had some discords. But, Thanesar has a very clear literary and archaeological confirmation of religious co-existence with harmony which was mainly between the Brahmanism and Buddhism. Though, with the passage of time, Vedic religion divided principally into five sects like Shaivism and Vaishnavism, Shaktism, Sun and Smartism even these sects may be lived together with sympathy and devotees of all these sects paid respect to all religious groups in the region. This aspect is presented by the ancient texts. thus, to confirm the literary sources for the co-existence of religion, archaeologist conducted the excavations and explorations in this region and several archaeological remains recovered from the region particularly from Buddhist Stupa- Thanesar have been investigated for the confirmation of Religious coexistence of Brahmanism and Buddhism.

  • History of Agriculture
    CHAPTER -I HISTORY OF AGRICULTURE Introduction Though, Haryana State emerged on the political map of India on 1st November, 1966, the region has been well known in history since the ancient times, as being the cradle of Indian culture and agriculture. The fate of Indian history has also been decided time and again on its soil. Since the Aryans inhabited this area in the second millennium B.C., the mainstay of its economy has always been agriculture and animal husbandry through the ages. Rigveda, the earliest recorded literature of the Aryans, was composed here. The Saraswati river, regarded as the life and the soul of the early Aryans, flowed through this region. Since the earliest times, the region has been playing a vital role in the economic growth of India and has contributed significantly in the agricultural development of this country. Though, archaeological evidences reveal that agriculture was being practised in this region earlier than the Harappan culture, the earliest literary reference is found in the Vaman-Purana. Geographically, Haryana is bounded by the Shiwalik Hills in the North, the Aravali Hills in the South, Yamuna river in the East and the Thar-desert in the West. The modern state of Haryana, covering an area of 44,222 square kilometer is situated in the Northern region of India, adjoining Delhi between 27o3/ to 31o9/ North latitude and 70o5/ to 77o6/ East longitude. The plains cover almost the entire state. The land slope is from North to South. The average height of topography ranges from 700 to 950 feet above sea-level.

    1 1 Archaeology on Coorg with Special Reference to Megaliths *Dr. N.C. Sujatha Abstract Coorg, located in the southern parts of modern Karnataka is a land locked country, situated between the coastal plains and the river plains of Karnataka. This hilly region part of Western Ghats is covered with thick Kodagu as it colloquially called is the birth place of river Kaveri and other rivers. The mountains of this region are part of the Sahyadri ranges. The high raised mountain ranges like Pushpagiri, Tadiyandamol, and Brahmagiri are the rich reserves for rare animals and flora and fauna. These high rising mountains and peaks causes heavy to very heavy rainfall during the s-w monsoon. This hilly region is known as ‘Kodugunadu’ , ‘ kudunad’, ‘Maleppa’ etc. Key Words: Kodagu, Kudunadu, Mythology, proto-history, Megaliths, Kaveri, Dolemens, strucuture, inhabitated, tribes, poleyas, Eravas, Irulas, Gowdas, Pandava-pare, Introduction - The study of the history of Kodagu begins with discovery of hundreds of dolmen, megaliths burials, pottery and other artifacts found in those places which might have been inhabited by people of pre-historical period. Kodagu is inhabited by the Kodavas who call themselves as ‘Kaverammada Makka’; children of river Kaveri whom they adore and consider worthy of worship. It is part of their life and culture. The other people who inhabit here are the Gowdas, the Malayali speaking, Kannada speaking tribes, some aboriginals like Poleyas, Eravas, Jenu kurubas, Betta Kurubas, Irulas, Gonds, Iris, Kavadis and Thodas etc. For centuries the history of Kodagu was non-existent, as nothing was known about Coorg, except its distinct socio-cultural background added with rich cultural heritage.

  • CHAPTER II HISTORY Ancient Period Kurukshetra Is As Old As the History
    CHAPTER II HISTORY Ancient Period Kurukshetra is as old as the history of India. The history of the area in which Kurukshetra district lies can be traced back, howsoever dimly at times to the ancient Aryan Past. According to Dr. R.C. Majumdar, “it was a religion-cultural centre even before the immigration of the Aryans into India” 1. The pre-Harappans and the Harappans were the earliest people inhabiting the district as is gathered from the discovery of their pottery from some sites in Kurukshetra and its adjoining areas2. It is not possible to attempt any reconstruction of these earliest inhabitations on the basis of this slender evidence. The next phase of the material culture of the district is marked by the discovery of Later-Harappan Ware (c.1700-1500 B.C.) from as many as sixty three sites 3, some of which have been systematically excavated. A brief account of the excavated sites and the valuable evidence which they have brought to light is as follows.- The ancient mound near village Daulatpur is of a moderate size; rising to a height of nearly 6 metres. It lies by the side of nullah, branching off from the Chutang (ancient Drishadvati ). It is approached via Kurukshetra-Saharanpur road and is about 15 Kms. from Thanesar. The earliest settlement at the site represents a late phase of Indus Civilization (c.1700-1500 B.C.). The period was characterized by the use of typical sturdy, red coloured pottery, painted in black and decorated with geometric and linear designs. The evolved shapes, inferior treatment of the surface and the simpler and fewer decorations on the pottery indicate a decadent stage of the Indus 1 B.K.Muztar, “Kurukshetra Political and Cultural History,P.7 (Delhi) 2 Suraj Bhan, Pre-historical Archaeology of Sarasvati and Drishadvati Vallies, Baroda University Ph.D.

    Jainism in Haryana: An Archaeological Perspective Vivek Dangi1 1. Department of History, All India Jat Heroes Memorial College, Rohtak, Haryana – 124 001, India (Email: [email protected]) Received: 26 July 2017; Revised: 11 September 2017; Accepted: 04 November 2017 Heritage: Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies in Archaeology 5 (2017): 300‐330 Abstract: The origin of Jainism is much earlier than Buddhism and most of the scholars agree that its antiquity goes back to Vedic times. Evidences of its existence are found in most of all the Indian states and Haryana was also an important centre of Jainism during hoary past. A large number of Jaina sculptures and other antiquities are occasionally found as chance discoveries from various archaeological sites in Haryana. The Jaina literature also refers to many important Jaina sites such as Agroha, Hansi, Rohtak etc. and many more place are yet to identify which are mentioned in ancient Jaina literature but so far as no attempt has been made to study the Jaina remains in Haryana in holistic perspective.
