About the Book
The Archaeology of Bhakti II (Royal Bhakti, Local Bhakti) is a comprehensive scholarly work that explores the historical and material dimensions of devotional traditions in South India. Focusing on both royal patronage and local expressions of bhakti, the volume investigates inscriptions, temple architecture, iconography, and archaeological evidence to understand how devotional movements were shaped by political authority and regional communities. Supported by numerous black-and-white illustrations, the book offers detailed analysis of sacred spaces, ritual practices, and socio-religious dynamics. This work is an essential resource for scholars, researchers, and readers interested in South Indian history, temple studies, archaeology, and the evolution of bhakti traditions.
