Quaternary Geoarchaeology of India
The Quaternary Period in South Asia has a very prolonged and diverse history. Within this region, India represents various technological and cultural phases of hominin occupation adapting to different ecological zones throughout the Quaternary Period. The earliest records of this occupation can be traced back to 1.5 Ma ago and possibly to c. 2 Ma ago. Archaeological evidence has been reported from all known phases in India, showing a continuous record of occupation from the Early Pleistocene onwards and reflecting adaptation by multiple hominin species over time. This book aims to highlight recent advances in the Quaternary geoarchaeology by showcasing diverse methods such as archaeology, geology, palaeoclimatology, sedimentology, GIS, remote sensing and taphonomy. It presents a collection of papers that address various geoarchaeological aspects from different regions in India, within the time frame of the Early Pleistocene to Anthropocene. This volume provides an opportunity for new data to be disseminated, particularly by young researchers and, within the framework of worldwide research issues, it promotes new geoarchaeological perspectives from India.

Cave Science: Insights from the Indian Subcontinent
“Meghalayan Age”: Scientists added a new chapter in Earth’s history and we are in it. It is one of the most notable achievements identified from a stalagmite (rock structure) from Mawmluh Cave, Meghalaya, which captured the abrupt climate-event at ~ 4200 years ago. Some caves identified from Meghalaya have already been in top chart positions on World’s cave Map. Besides it, various other findings that emerged from the Indian caves are globally recognized. Notwithstanding these advances, cave science is not yet in the mainstream of our education system. This book is an attempt to accommodate all such notable findings which came out from the Indian caves and are internationally recognized. The book includes the 8 chapters which are on- Indian Caves, Paleoclimatology, Biospeleology, Chiroptelology, Geomicrobiology, Hydrogeology, Paleoanthropology and Cave Conservancy. This comprehensive reference book will not only enlighten the path for studying Cave Science but also serve as a proper key to open various doors of Cave Research and their protection in India in a proper way.
