Hardcover. Zustand: New. The famous historical city of Hampi, located in the southern state of present day Karnataka, once served as the imperial capital of the Vijayanagara Empire (c.1336-1565). It was further beautified by Krishnadeva Raya, a powerful ruler of the dynasty. The Hampi ruins are also recognized by the UNESCO as a Heritage Site. This book discusses the capital from the perspectives of archaeological and architectural studies, in addition to its historical context. The author examines the inscriptions obtained at the site from the early times of the Vijayanagara dynasty up to the expansion of the Islamicate and Portuguese Empires in the seventeenth century. It also includes foreign accounts discussing the Vijayanagara Empire, its history, and the religious traditions of the historical city. However, the main focus is on the architectural structures of Hampi, which are extensively analyzed by the author. This includes fortifications and irrigation plans, the main buildings inside the citadel, Indo-Saracenic architecture, and other structures located in the northern and eastern parts of Hampi, as well as the surrounding buildings.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About the Book:-The commonest kind of ancient sepulchre found in Southern India and the Deccan is the tumulus, the prototype of the Buddhist stupa or tomb. These tumuli are low circular mounds of earth surrounded by a ring of big boulders firmly planted in the ground to keep the tumulus in position and to mark the sacred spot. The chief purpose for which stupas were erected by the Buddhists was to serve as monuments enclosing relics of the Buddha, or of Buddhist saints, which were placed in a reliquary enclosed in a stone coffer, over which the stupa was built. Through this book the author traces and studies the evolution of the Stupa as a religious symbol. It has divided into 4 chapters that discuss --The umbrella as a symbol of religious sovereignty, The evolution of the stupa, Kerala architecture and then, Himalayan architecture. The book has 42 fine illustrations. These photographs reproduced in this book are from blocks prepared by the Survey Department, Colombo. This book is a reprint of the 1936 edition. About the Author :-Albert Henry Longhurst (1876 1955) was a British archaeologist and art historian, working in India and Ceylon. He was the brother-in-law of Sir John Marshall, the Director-General of the Archaeology Survey of India (1902-1928). In October 1913 he was appointed the Superintendent of the Southern Circle, Archaeological Survey of India. From 1927 to 1931 he was in charge of the systematic digging of Nagarjunakonda. Longhurst served as the Archaeological Commissioner, Archaeological Survey of Ceylon between 1934 and 1940, mainly working at Polonnaruwa but also at Anuradhapura and Sigiriya, concentrating more on conservation/restoration rather than excavation.
