About the Book
This book represents fundamental research in medieval archaeology, focusing on the excavation results at Birchhabili-Tila and the exploration of the Sikri area within a 25 km radius. It offers a chronological study of medieval monuments, analyzing inscriptions and mason marks with a new perspective.
The book also presents the identification of the Ibadat-Khanah built by Emperor Akbar for religious and philosophical discussions, a site of significant historical importance. Additionally, it discusses the Agni-Kunda at the so-called Jodha Bai’s Palace, Hiran-Minar, and other monuments, offering new interpretations based on contemporary historical records.
The work dives deep into the archaeological study of Akbar’s Fatehpur Sikri, including the Anup-Talao (1576 AD), Akbar's Ganga-Sagar, and the Ibadat-Khanah (1576-82), shedding light on medieval Sikri from the 10th to the 16th century AD.
