We present the first systematic evaluation of relationship between archaeological and palaeoclimatic record from north-western India during past millennium, urban site Chandravati. The rarity Medieval sites, excavations multi-disciplinary work in subcontinent obscure impact two distinct climate anomalies − ‘Medieval Warm Period’ (‘MWP’, 740 1150 CE), followed by ‘Little Ice Age’ (‘LIA’, 1350 1850 CE). finds indicate presence winter summer crops, suggesting region was likely warm mild humid...
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and probe micro-analyzer (EPMA) techniques have been used to detect the silicon bioavailability in exocarp of warty cucumber surface. Warts appear at time anthesis are remnant part spines/trichomes which on further fruit maturation abscised from exocarp. Results EPMA phytolith analysis clearly revealed that surface (fruit) Cucumis sativus Linn. containing warts has greater quantity as compared other fruit. Besides silicon, some elements were also found, its...
Fly ash changes the soil properties which may cause disastrous influence on microbial activity and growth of plant. However, scientific studies fly in various combination with an organic fertilizers response at semi-arid region Bundelkhand is scanty India. The main objective this study was to assess impact lower or higher doses physico-chemical characteristic, population leguminous plant chickpea (cicer arietinum L), important crop Bundelkhand. field experiment conducted during winter,...
Here we present a continuous palaeoclimatic record of 5980 years (7230 cal BP–1250 BP) from Hetapatti, Neolithic site situated on the western fringe Central Ganga Plain. The region was center reurbanisation following decline Harappan civilisation and is considered hub economic, political religious evolution since sixth millennium BC. Hetapatti contains an uninterrupted sequence to Historic (Gupta) period. study integrates two different approaches (phytoliths carbon isotope analysis) infer...
The relationship between historical climate change and past agricultural production contributes to a better understanding of the impacts projected by providing empirical data for resilient human responses. This study explores periods dynastic transitions crop in semi-arid northwest India spanning several global events, generally weakening summer monsoon precipitation through Late Holocene, at urban site Vadnagar. Artefacts from present an unbroken sequence seven successive cultures first...
This paper presents the results of plant macro–remain analysis from Iron Age–Historic settlement sites in Ganga Plain. The remains affirm presence distinct agricultural economy based on cereals (Oryza sativa, Hordeum vulgare, Triticum aestivum, sphaerococcum), pulses (Lathyrus sativus, Vigna sp., Macrotyloma uniflorum), oil–fibre yielding (Sesamum indicum, Gossypium sp.) and minor millets (Panicum Setaria sp.). Relative dates ceramics individual site provide secure chronology for between...
