This book seeks to understand archaeological sites and their relationship with a dynamic alluvial environment in north Bengal, India, between c.600–1800 ce with a special focus on the excavations at the site of Balupur. Moving away from the prevalent emphasis on the study of art and architecture, this work aims to bring back the ‘human’ to the study of these cultural periods through a study of the formation and changing character of past habitation settlements.
