Description
It is perhaps for the first time that a comprehensive study on the Himalayan Rock Art spanning form the primitive age to our times has been accomplished and presented very lucidly in the present valume. The spatiotemporal scope of this study is very vast: it not only covers the primitive rock engravings and paintings, but also the rock art of classical period and of the modern times, and embraces entire Himalayan region from the interiors of Jammu & Kashmir in the west to Arunachal in the east. In fact, the creative activity on the rocks in the Himalayan region has been so vigorous, varied and continuous through ages that it can be confined neither to a specific time-bracket nor to a particular area. Having transcended all spatio-temporal limits, the Rock Art has been manifesting itself in diverse manners with the varying levels of sophistication to establish its relevance with the changing times and tempers.
