    Mobility and Subsistence Strategies: a Case Study of Inamgaon) a Chalcolithic Site in Western India

    Mobility and Subsistence Strategies: A Case Study of Inamgaon) A Chalcolithic Site in Western India SHEENA PANJA ARCHAEOLOGY TODAY deals with being critical of our assumptions; being re­ flexive, relational, and contextual. The conclusions are always flexible and open to change as new relations emerge. It is impossible to approach the data without prejudice and without some general theory, but the aim is to evaluate such gen­ erality in relation to the contextual data. Our own understanding about human behavior acts as a generalization with which to understand the past. Nevertheless, we can agree that the past is objectively organized in contexts that are different from our own. The internal archaeological evidence then forces us to consider whether the past subject we are dealing with is familiar to us or makes us rethink deep-seated presuppositions about the nature of human behavior. The objective component of archaeological data means that the archaeologist can be confronted with a past that is different from the present. It is this guarded objectivity of the material "other" that provides the basis of critique. It is thus a hermeneutical pro­ cedure that involves a dialectical interplay between our own understandings and the forms of life we are seeking to understand. It is an ongoing dialogue between the past and the present in which the outcome resides wholly in neither side but is a product of both (Hodder 1991; Hodder et al. 1995; Wylie 1989). It is with these ideas in mind that this article is aimed to analyze critically certain categories archaeologists use to understand human behavior in a dialectical effort to understand the past.

It takes as its starting point Michael Pearson’s concept of ports as ‘gateways’ and ‘hubs’ and tries to examine the multiple networks of trade that were centred in this port. In 2003, Michael Pearson had argued that it was time for a shift in perspective, to “look from the sea to the land, and most obviously to the coast.”1 While going along the coasts of the ‘expansive’ Indian Ocean, there were a number of choke points, at which, he said, port cities were usually found.
  • Subsistence Strategies and Burial Rituals: Social Practices in the Late Deccan Chalcolithic

    Subsistence Strategies and Burial Rituals: Social Practices in the Late Deccan Chalcolithic

    Subsistence Strategies and Burial Rituals: Social Practices in the Late Deccan Chalcolithic TERESA P. RACZEK IN THE SECOND MILLENNIUM B.C., THE RESIDENTS OF THE WESTERN DECCAN region of India practiced an agropastoral lifestyle and buried their infant children in ceramic urns below their house floors. With the coming of the first millennium B.C., the inhabitants of the site of Inamgaon altered their subsistence practices to incorporate more wild meat and fewer grains into their diet. Although daily practices in the form of food procurement changed, infant burial practices remained constant from the Early Jorwe (1400 B.c.-lOOO B.C.) to the Late Jorwe (1000 B.c.-700 B.C.) period. Examining interments together with subsistence strategies firmly situates ideational practices within the fabric of daily life. This paper will explore the relationship between change and continuity in burial and subsistence practices around 1000 B.C. at the previously excavated Cha1colithic site of Inamgaon in the western Deccan (Fig. 1). By considering the act of burial as a moment of social construction that both creates and reflects larger traditions, it is possible to understand how each individual interment affects chronological variability. That burial traditions at Inamgaon were continuously recreated in the face of a changing society suggests that meaningful and significant practices were actively upheld. Burial practices at Inamgaon were both structured and fluid enough to allow room for individual and group expression. The con­ temporaneous variability that occurs in the burial record at Inamgaon may reflect the marking of various aspects of personhood. Burial traditions and the ability and desire of the living to conforITl to them vary over time and it is important to consider the specific social context in which they occur.

    On a Collection of Centipedes (Myriapoda : Chilopoda) from Pune, Maharashtra

    1tIIe. ZDflI. Surv. India, 93 (1-2) : 165-174, 1993 ON A COLLECTION OF CENTIPEDES (MYRIAPODA : CHILOPODA) FROM PUNE, MAHARASHTRA. B. E. YADAV Zoological Survey of India Western Regional Station Pune-411 005. INTRODUCTION The Centipedes are an important group of organisms. They are poisonous, cryptic, solitary, carnivorous and nocturnal. Their distribution and taxonomy have been studied by Attems (1930). The centipedes from Deccan area are reported by Jangi and Dass (1984). However, there is no upto-date account of centipedes occuring in and around Pune, Maharashtra. On the basis of huge collection present in the Western Regional Station, Pune, an attempt has been made to record centipedes from Pune district. The present paper deals with six genera comorising eighteen species of centipedes belongIng to the family Scolopendridae, mostly collected from Haveli taluka (Fig. 1). Occasionally bling centipedes (Cryptopidae) as well as long centipedes possessing more than 21 trunk segments, were also observed. DESCRIPTION ON LOCALITIES Pune city is situated 18 0 35' North latitude and 73° 53' East longitude at 558.6 m above MSL, with normal rainfall 675 mm per year in Maharashtra State. Centipedes were collected in the vicinity of Pune from Haveli, Khed, Maval, Ambegaon, Sirur and Purandar talukas. Haveli taluka ; Eastern portion of this taluka is characterised by brown soil and mixed deciduous forest. 1. Akurdi: Akurdi is a small village situated 18 kms. NW of pune and at 575 m above MSL. This area occupies many stones and boulders. 2. Bhosri: Bhosri is a suburban area, 19 km. N of Pune on ~une-Nasik road.

No. 2, (2015) : 283-300 AN OVERVIEW ON DEVELOPMENT OF PALAEOPATHOLOGY IN THE INDIAN SUB-CONTINENT Veena Mushrif-Tripathy and Ruokuonuo Rose Yhome ABSTRACT “Our basic research interest is to reconstruct biological dynamics of earlier living human populations and clearly a sample of dead people is not the same as a sample of living people. What is less clear is how significant this difference is and what mechanisms can be used or developed to minimize the effect of this difference on the interpretation of our data (Ortner, 2003) BACKGROUND Palaeopathology essentially can be defined as the study of (logos) ancient (palaeo) suffering (pathos) in both humans and other animals. It is a discipline that aims to trace the origin, evolution and history of disease over long periods of time through pathological changes which represent diseases suffered in life and observed in human remains buried at archaeological sites (Fig. 1). Other definitions of Palaeopathology includes; ‘Investigation of the disease affecting human ancient population for better understanding of the process of human adaptation led to the development of palaeopathology which is also considered as a holistic study of humans in their physical environment’ (Roberts and Manchester 1995). ‘Paleopathology encompasses the study of disease, both human and nonhuman, in antiquity using a variety of different sources including human mummified and skeletal remains, ancient documents, illustrations from early books, painting and sculpture from the past, and analysis of coprolites’ (Ortner 2003: 23). The term palaeopathology was first implemented by Shufeldt in 1892, which literally explain as ‘ancient suffering’.

Email - [email protected] Abstract: The 2011 Indian Census found nearly 31% of India’s vast population lives within urban centers and contribute a handsome 63% toward India’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). It is expected that by 2030, the population will rise up to 40% and GDP 75% . Without a shred of doubt, India’s cities are its chief catalyst towards economic prosperity. The term “smart city“was coined towards the end of the 20th century and it implies the implementation of user-friendly information and communication technologies developed by major industries for urban spaces. Its meaning has since been expanded to relate to the future of cities and their development. Smart cities are forward-looking, progressive and resource-efficient while providing at the same time a high quality of life. They promote social and technological innovations and link existing infrastructures. They incorporate new energy, traffic and transport concepts that go easy on the environment. Their focus is on new forms of governance and public participation. The present study analyses the facilities available in Baramati and explores its potential to become a Smart City.
