Prompting us to re-read and re-write parts of what we know about ancient Bengal, this book primarily delves into the Wari-Bateshwar archaeological sites to establish a historically important factual link between military and society in the stream of time. The volume takes us through a thrilling and historically compelling journey through systematically researched historical data, artifacts, and ecofacts from this rather uncharted archaeological site. The work successfully infuses geo-political and geo-strategic analyses together with recovered military artifacts, terracotta and stone sling bullets, artillery ammunition, dantakantaka, spearheads etc. which are pertinent to military strategy and history of the period. It also frequently draws parallels to other contemporary civilizations based on unique interpretations.
