About me
Hello, I am an Archaeologist who took his M.Phil (1983) and Ph.D. degrees (1988), from the University of Cambridge. I have been back in India since then and never visited the U.K. again, except in 1990, to attend an interview at the Archaeology Department of that University for the Post of Lecturer in South Asian Archaeology. My only consolation was that Cambridge University bore the entire cost of the visit, and that, I was one amongst the only four selected world-wide, for the interview for that post. That makes 20 odd years, since I last visited Britain. I would certainly like to visit again. Recently, the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britaina nd Ireland has selected me as a Fellow. I keep up-to-date with Britain and Ireland, through the Newspapers, and the T.V., but recently, I found-out, that the web-resource, is also a good way to keep in touch. I have recently become a Member of The Royal Anthropological Institute, U.K., and a Fellow of The Royal Asiatic Society, U.K. My designation: Reader, (M.Phil and Ph.D. University of Cambridge, U.K.), Department of History, Faculty of Social Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi 221005 India
