"Studies in Indian Anthropology covers various aspects of the discipline of anthropology like pre-historic archaeology, ecology, indigenous knowledge systems and colonialism, kinship, marriage, social organization, religion, and methodological approaches to the study. The present volume is a Festschrift brought out in honour of a nationally and internationally renowned scholar in anthropology and a teacher par excellence, Professor Gopala Sarana. At the outset, it also narrates a complete account of Professor Sarana's contribution to anthropology.The present volume, being eclectic in approach, would benefit the academic community at large."
