Book Summary
About the Book: Echoes in Stone: The Rock-cut Sculptures of Barabar Hill
The present book is part of an ongoing research series on the rock-cut
sculptures of Eastern India, with a specific focus on the lesser-known
sculptural heritage of Barabar Hill in Bihar. While Barabar is often
acknowledged for its ancient rock-cut caves from the Mauryan period, this volume
highlights another equally significant yet overlooked aspect—the numerous
sculptures carved into the hill. Through meticulous fieldwork, including on-site
surveys, high-quality photographs, and precise measurements, this study brings
together over a hundred sculptures—some carved directly into the rock and others
discovered as movable fragments. Each sculpture is carefully analysed
