This work describes the ancient calendrical systems peculiar to the Thar Desert, their origin, and the political and military background against which they developed. Based almost entirely upon original research, this book should be required reading for historians of Rajasthan and Sindh. It will also be of great value to students of South Asian epigraphy.
