There are not one but two deltas here: the western delta, corresponding to the present West Bengal, and the south-eastern delta, in present Bangladesh. The essays in this volume question the conventional fault line located on the south-eastern Bengal delta, between the historiography of South and SouthEast Asia. Concentrating on commodity and currency flows, travel, trade routesand interactive networks, this volume proposes that these areas be viewed as crossroads, mediating flows between the land-dwelling and aquatic worlds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789380607207\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.8 x 6.5 x 1.1 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Primus Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50135276454192,"sku":"DRG.ePrimus_9789380607207","price":1047.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/71S00u2O0yL.jpg?v=1757602495","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/pelagic-passageways-the-northern-bay-of-bengal-before-colonialism","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
