This Illustrated book endeavours to demonstrate that the narratives by scholarly sages embodied in these ancient Sanskrit works do not represent figments of poetic imagination, but provide if shorn of metaphors, idiomatic phrases and alegories the revealing facts and invaluable information on the geography and geomorphological layout, the ethnicity of the people who lived in diffrent parts of the country, the flora and fauna that peopled the land of Bharatvarsha, and the drastic geodynamic events and climatic changes that overtook the land particularly in the last 12,000 years of the Holocence Epoch called the Chaturyuga in the Puranas and Epics.
