About the Author:
Dr. J. Burgess is a renowned scholar in the field of archaeology and historical studies, particularly noted for his work on the excavations at significant Indian archaeological sites.
Introduction:
The recent history of excavations at the Amaravati Tope can be summarized through the efforts of Mr. Robert Sewell, M.C.S., in 1877. With a grant of Rs. 1,000, Sewell conducted careful and insightful excavations at Amaravati, Undavalli, and other sites. His objective was to preserve the original arrangement of the stones at the Amaravati site, ensuring that, whether the artifacts were moved to places like Madras or London, the monument could be reconstructed scientifically. He emphasized that any mishandling of these stones could forever obscure valuable historical information. His careful work remains a crucial part of understanding the site and its significance in Indian history.
