A revised edition of Shereen Ratnagar's Encounters: The Westerly Trade of the Harappa Civilization. The book explores the scope of the trading contacts of the centres that fell within the "Indus Valley" civilizations.
This book suggests alternatives to the 'holocaust' theories of civilizational collapse in Harappa. The civilization is placed in a wider geographic setting to explore not just the internal factors but also those operating within the Bronze Age at large.
