The tradition later kept on decision as a feudatory of bigger Kannada domains, the Chalukya and the Rashtrakuta realms for more than five hundred years amid which time they stretched into Goa and Hanagal. At the pinnacle of their capacity under King Kakushtavarma, they led extensive pieces of Karnataka. Amid the pre-Kadamba period the decision families that controlled Karnataka, the Mauryas, Satavahanas and Chutus had moved to the district and the core of intensity dwelled outside present day Karnataka.

  • Kannada Versus Sanskrit: Hegemony, Power and Subjugation Dr
    ================================================================== Language in India www.languageinindia.com ISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 17:8 August 2017 UGC Approved List of Journals Serial Number 49042 ================================================================ Kannada versus Sanskrit: Hegemony, Power and Subjugation Dr. Meti Mallikarjun =================================================================== Abstract This paper explores the sociolinguistic struggles and conflicts that have taken place in the context of confrontation between Kannada and Sanskrit. As a result, the dichotomy of the “enlightened” Sanskrit and “unenlightened” Kannada has emerged among Sanskrit-oriented scholars and philologists. This process of creating an asymmetrical relationship between Sanskrit and Kannada can be observed throughout the formation of the Kannada intellectual world. This constructed dichotomy impacted the Kannada world in such a way that without the intellectual resource of Sanskrit, the development of the Kannada intellectual world is considered quite impossible. This affirms that Sanskrit is inevitable for Kannada in every respect of its sociocultural and philosophical formations. This is a very simple contention, and consequently, Kannada has been suffering from “inferiority” both in the cultural and philosophical development contexts. In spite of the contributions of Prakrit and Pali languages towards Indian cultural history, the Indian cultural past is directly connected to and by and large limited to the aspects of Sanskrit culture and philosophy alone. The Sanskrit language per se could not have dominated or subjugated any of the Indian languages. But its power relations with religion and caste systems are mainly responsible for its domination over other Indian languages and cultures. Due to this sociolinguistic hegemonic structure, Sanskrit has become a language of domination, subjugation, ideology and power. This Sanskrit-centric tradition has created its own notion of poetics, grammar, language studies and cultural understandings.

  • Archaeology of Roman Maritime Commerce in Peninsular India
    C hapter V Archaeology Of Roman Maritime Commerce in Peninsular India The impact of Roman maritime commerce on the socio-economic fabric of Early Historic India has been the theme of historical reconstructions from archaeology Perhaps the most forceful projection of this theme was made by (Ghosh 1989:132) who says with regard to the urbanization of peninsular India that the ‘early historical period of south and south-west India seems to have had its own peculiarities. Though, as in neighbouring regions it originated in the midst of megaliths, its driving force arose not so much out of north Indian contacts as trade with the Roman World in the 1 St century B C , particularly resulting in the establishment of seaports and emporia. ’ Mehta (1983:139-148), also argues for Roman trade contact catalysing processes of urbanization in the Gujarat-Maharashtra region Ray (1987: 94-104) in her study of urbanization of the Deccan, points out that ‘ enormous expansion of inland trade networks in the subcontinent, coupled with increased maritime activity between the west coast and the Red Sea ports of the Roman Empire led to the rise of urban centres at vantage points along the trade-routes and in the peripheral. and hitherto unoccupied areas ’ Similarly, Sharma (1987) endeavours to build a case for widespread deurbanization in the subcontinent in the 3rd cenury A D caused, among other factors, by the collapse of Indo-Roman trade In the conclusion to his analysis of urban decay in India, Sharma (1987 180) says ‘ the Kusana and Satavahana urban centres

VAHIA Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, India, and Manipal Advanced Research Group, Manipal University, Manipal – 576104, Karnataka, India. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The megalithic monuments of peninsular India, believed to have been erected in the Iron Age (1500BC – 200AD), can be broadly categorized into sepulchral and non-sepulchral in purpose. Though a lot of work has gone into the study of these monuments since Babington first reported megaliths in India in 1823, not much is understood about the knowledge systems extant in the period when these were built – in science and engineering, and especially in mathematics and astronomy. We take a brief look at the archaeological understanding of megaliths, before making a detailed assessment of a group of megaliths in the south Canara region of Karnataka State in South India that were hitherto assumed to be haphazard clusters of menhirs. Our surveys have indicated that there is a positive correlation of sight-lines with sunrise and sunset points on the horizon for both summer and winter solstices. We identify five such monuments in the region and present the survey results for one of these sites, demonstrating their astronomical implications. We also discuss the possible use of megaliths in the form of stone alignments/ avenues as calendar devices.

  • Stone Axe Technology in Neolithic South India: New Evidence from the Sanganakallu-Kupgal Region) Mideastern Karnataka
    Stone Axe Technology in Neolithic South India: New Evidence from the Sanganakallu-Kupgal Region) Mideastern Karnataka ADAM BRUMM, NICOLE BOIVIN, RAVI KORISETTAR, JINU KOSHY, AND PAULA WHITTAKER THE TRANSITION TO AGRICULTURE-and to settled village life-occurred at dif­ ferent times in various parts of the world. Even within the Indian subcontinent, the Neolithic transition did not occur simultaneously across the entire region; rather, Neolithic "pockets" developed at different moments in certain key areas within the subcontinent. One such area is the South Deccan Plateau in South India, where the third millennium B.C. saw the development ofa novel Neolithic way of life that differed in crucial ways from Neolithic lifeways in other parts of the subcontinent (Allchin 1963). This tradition was marked by a particular focus on cattle and by the appearance of specific, perhaps ritual practices that featured the burning of large quantities of cow dung and the resultant creation of ash­ mounds in the landscape (Allchin 1963; Boivin 2004). This unique Neolithic tra­ dition, while still relatively poorly understood compared to Neolithic cultures in Europe and the Near East, has much to offer prehistorians attempting to under­ stand the changes that led to and accompanied domestication and sedentarization. It also has much to offer South Asian scholars who wish to gain a better apprecia­ tion of the changes that led to complexity, political economy, and state-level societies in South India (Boivin et al. 2005; Fuller et al. forthcoming). One key requirement for such studies is a better understanding of the material culture changes that attended the Neolithic transition, as well as the subsequent transition from the Neolithic to the Megalithic or Iron Age (see Table 1 for period designa­ tions and chronology).

  • Understanding the Stability of Early Iron Age Folks of South India with Special Reference to Krishna-Tungabhadra- Kaveri, Karnataka; Their Past-Present-Future
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Christ University Bengaluru: Open Journal Systems Artha J Soc Sci, 13, 4 (2014), 47-62 ISSN 0975-329X|doi.org/10.12724/ajss.31.4 Understanding the Stability of Early Iron Age folks of South India with Special Reference to Krishna-Tungabhadra- Kaveri, Karnataka; Their Past-Present-Future Arjun R* Abstract There are about 1933 Early Iron Age Megalithic sites spread across South India. The Early Iron Age of South India is implicit either in the form of burial sites, habitation sites, habitation cum burial sites, Iron Age rock art sites, and isolated iron smelting localities near a habitation or burials. This paper is an attempt to take a rough computation of the potentiality of the labour, technology and quantity of artifact output that this cultural phase might have once had, in micro or in macro level. Considering the emergence of technology and its enormous output in Ceramics, Agriculture, Metallurgy and Building up Burials as industries by themselves, that has economic, ethnographic and socio-technique archaeological imprints. This helps in understanding two aspects: one, whether they were nomadic, semi settled or settled at one location; two, the Diffusion versus Indigenous development. A continuity of late Neolithic phase is seen into Early Iron Age and amalgamation of Early Iron Age with the Early Historic Period as evident in the sites like Maski, Brahmagiri, Sanganakallu, Tekkalakota, T-Narasipur. In few cases, Iron Age folks migrated from one location to the other and settled on the river banks in large scale like that in Hallur and Koppa.
