Book Description
Archaeological excavations were conducted by the author at Sirpur (ancient Sripur) from 1999 2000 to 2010-2011. The well known capital of Dakshin Kosala from where Sarabhapuriyas and Panduvamsis ruler ruled from 5th c.A.D. to almost 12th c.A.D. remained neglected for want of proper scientific investigations after 1956.
During ten years of excavations the author has brought to light nearly 22 temples, revealing temple architecture of its own style on which Dr. K. Deva briefly wrote on the basis of standing temples.
A.K. Sharma is internationally known for his original contributors in Archaeology. During his 33 years of active career in Archaeological Survey of India he explored and excavated in Jammu and Kashmir, Uttranchal, North-East India, Madhya Pradesh, Lakshadweep, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Goa, Haryana, Chhattisgarh and other remote areas.
