Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'On Alexander's Track to the Indus' is a compelling personal narrative documenting the archaeological and historical expeditions of Sir Aurel Stein along the rugged North-West Frontier of India. Following the historical trail of the Macedonian conqueror, Stein explores the challenging terrain to verify the locations and events of Alexander the Great's campaign in the Indian subcontinent during the 4th century BCE.The work combines rigorous geographical research with first-hand observations as Stein identifies key landmarks mentioned in classical historical accounts. Most notably, the narrative details the successful identification of the mountain stronghold of Aornos, a site that had long eluded modern researchers. By bridging the gap between ancient texts and the physical landscape of the Swat valley, Stein provides a scholarly yet accessible account of military history and cultural exchange.As a significant contribution to the field of Central Asian studies, this book offers profound insights into the legacy of Hellenistic influence in Asia and the diverse cultures of the trans-Indus region.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Hungarian-born archaeologist Marc Aurel Stein (1862-1943) is probably best remembered today for his explorations in Chinese Turkestan, and especially his discovery of the Buddhist treasure of Dunhuang, described in his earlier works, Sand-Buried Ruins of Khotan and Ruins of Desert Cathay (also reissued in this series). Stein was equally interested in the territory north-west of the North-West Frontier, and in this highly illustrated 1929 work he describes an expedition to survey the route of Alexander the Great's invasion of India in 326 BCE. Having long been intrigued by 'that comparatively small area to the west of the Indus which Alexander's march of conquest towards India for a brief span of time illuminates as it were with the light of a meteor', and by archaeological remains showing a blend of Hellenistic and Buddhist art, Stein offers a fascinating account of an ancient clash of civilisations.…
