This book is based on the systematic and extensive fieldwork carried out in Goa,
which brought to light numerous sites ranging from the Lower Paleolithic to the
Early Historic Period. Taking into consideration the evidences collected during
the present survey, the sites known earlier, their environment, the distribution
pattern and sea level fluctuations, a sincere attempt has been made to
reconstruct the cultural development of the region. The sites located in the
adjoining regions of Karnataka and Maharashtra have also been studied. The
effort has resulted in establishing a broad outline of cultural development from
the prehistoric to the early historic times in Goa.
