It is now established that in seventh-eighth cent. A.D., during the time of Pandu-Vamsi rulers at Sirpur was a great trading centre where a variety of objects were manufactured and exported. The finely moulded sculptures with silver and gold platings clearly demonstrate the well developed sculptural art both in stone and metal in the this part of the presently entrenched so called back-ward area.

The book is a valuable reference book both for scholars and students of art and history." (jacket). …
