Abstract
The book review evaluates the book The Archaeology of South Asia from the Indus to Asoka, c. 6500 BCE-200 CE by Robin Coningham and Ruth Young. The volume emphasizes the regional diversity of South Asian archaeological cultures and proposes a long historical continuity between the Bronze Age Indus culture (in present-day Pakistan and western India) and the Early Historic cities of the Indian peninsular subcontinent.
