The volume is a selective collection of the revised and enlarged versions of the papers presented in a National Seminar on ?Emerging Trends in the Study of History & Archaeology,? organized by the Department of History, Pondicherry University. In addition to these, some more papers contributed by distinguished scholars exclusively for this volume are also included.

The theme of the papers range from prehistoric archaeology to modern history, dealing with a variety of topics of Indian history, archaeology, epigraphy, environmental studies, oral history, historical records, local history, theoretical perspectives in archaeology, history, folklore and so on.
