Ideas and Images: A Historical Interpretation of Eastern Vindhyan Rock Art, India
Pratap, Ajay (Professor of Ancient Indian History, Banaras Hindu University)
This book argues that the development of symbols and signs informing scripts, mainly the idea of coding thoughts through symbols and images, has always been uniquely ‘historical.’ Rock art abuts and occupies long periods of time in which the translation of indigenous thoughts was perfected through numerous mnemonic practices.
