Archaeological Survey of India. Circle reports
[1881-1921]
Since the middle of the 19th century, the Archaeological
Survey of India has been working to explore, excavate, conserve,
preserve and protect the monuments and sites of national
& international importance. Within the organization,
the country is divided into number of zones (called "Circles")
for the purpose of archaeological work. The zones of these
circles are not bounded by the State boundaries, and the
boundaries of the various circles were periodically altered
to suit administrative convenience and academic cohesion.
Each Circle is responsible for the exploration of new and
potential archaeological sites, scientific clearance and
small scale excavations, conservation, preservation and
protection of sites and monuments under its jurisdiction.
The annual progress reports of the Archaeological Survey
of India contain a wealth of material of importance to archaeologists
and historians. The Circle Reports are also basic reference
material for any student doing research in the field of
Indian art. The earliest report is the one for 1881 issued
by the Southern Circle. The publication of these reports
was discontinued after the report for 1920/21.
