This much anticipated volume looks at the historical evolution of towns and cities in medieval India from the early thirteenth to the late eighteenth century. The selection is based on the availability of documents. These include the narratives of European travellers in English, French, Italian, Dutch, and German with the exception of Ibn Battuta in mid-fourteenth century and also Middle Bengali literature in case of towns in Bengal. While the coastal towns and cities have been looked at, the interior ones are also described on the basis of the writings of later historians and archaeologists. Care has been taken to explain the rise, growth and the decline of some towns and cities in which the changing courses of rivers had played a crucial role. Attempts have been made to search other factors responsible for such eventualities. The delineation of physical features within the city has been given due emphasis including the different quarters of the city and the manners and customs of the local population with reference to craft production and commercial links. The morphological differences between the cities of eastern and those of the western or northern India have also been described. This is clear from the observations of port towns described here. All these would show that India was one of the most urbanized area in the medieval period before advent of the British.

In The Present Work An Attempt Has Been Made To Study The Major Artistic Characteristics Of Extant Bhumija Temples Of Madhya Pradesh. The Architectural Features Have Been Compared With Those Of The Prescribed Textual Norms. Further The Impacts Of This Popular Art Tradition Of Malwa Over The Contemporary Art Of Neighbouring Regions Like Maharashtra And Rajasthan Etc. Have Also Been Discussed. It May Not Be Out Of Place To Mention That During The Survey Of Monuments Of Good Number Of Brahamanical Images Were Also Noticed Which Are Either Intact With The Original Monuments Or Shifted To Different Museums. To Bring A Few Of Them Into The Notice Of Scholars A Brief Inconographical Note Was Also Prepared Which Has Been Added With The Text As Second Part. It Will Definitely Help The Scholars To Understand The Development Of Plastic Art Traditions Under The Paramaras Who Were Basically The Original Patrons Of Raising Bhumija Temples In Malwa.
