Annexures. References and Bibliography. Index. The book incorporates archaeological findings both from land and under water explorati…ons carried out a Bet Dwarka by the Marine Archaeology Centre of the National Institute of Oceanography Goa. Bet Dwaraka is one of the most significant archaeological sites in Okhamandal region of Gujarat as it has preserved the longest cultural sequence commencing from protohistoric period to modern times. The time bracket of archaeological remains have been well supported by the scientific dates such as Carbon AMS and thermoluminescence. Other important scientific aspects discussed in the book are analysis of bones palynological studies impact of seismic activities and sea level changes of the study area. The book begins with an introduction to the geological geographic archaeological and environmental background of the region and then devotes a chapter to chronology dealing with cultural and scientific dates from the site. Planning and layout of trenches and cultural findings and identification of layers have been described in a separate chapter. A full chapter has been devoted to antiquities discovered during the excavation which includes beads of terracotta shell glass stone and fish bone copper objects coins shell bangles and iron objects. Another chapter comprises of the detailed description of the pottery of the protohistoric and historical period. The concluding chapter deals with the shell remains from the island of Bet Dwarka. It is hoped that the book will help in understanding the maritime activities of the Okhamandal region and the cultural sequence of the Bet Dwarka island. Profusely illustrated with maps line drawings and plates the book will interest the general reader and will be immensely useful for the students and scholars of archaeology. 146 pp.

Dwarka has always evoked keen interest among scholars and researchers because of its links with the Mahabharata which mentions sea level changes much before the concept was developed and accepted in oceanography/marine geology. It was therefore naturally the first site to be taken up for marine archaeological exploration in India. The sea off Dwarka has been explored since 1982 for marine archeological purpose and the findings have attracted the attention of media and the common man. Archaeological findings such as a large number and variety of stone anchors suggest that Dwarka was a very busy port during the historical and the medieval periods. The present book details the scientific analysis of systematic explorations carried out between 1998 and 2002. The archaeological findings from Dwarka have been compared with the findings from various sites along the Saurashtra coast to provide relative information. The type of the antiquities recovered from the sea bed is indicative of the involvement of ancient man in maritime activities. This book discusses extensively the date and identification of anchors and other objects recovered from underwater exploration. The book also addresses some of the controversies that arose during early stage of the exploration based on additional facts and findings collected. Divided into two major sections devoted to Dwarka and Somnath respectively the book is profusely illustrated with underwater and surface photographs drawings and tables. It is hoped that the book will provide valuable facts on the underwater archaeology of Dwarka and Somnath for readers and scholars to draw their own conclusions. 92 pp.
