The first Volume of the series "Forschungen zur Archäologie Außereuropäischer Kulturen".
The Seventeenth International Conference on South Asian Archaeology was held in Bonn from 7th–11th July 2003. The conference was jointly hosted and organized by the Kommission für Archäologie Außereuropäischer Kulturen (previously the Kommission für Allgemeine und Vergleichende Archäologie) and the Eurasien-Abteilung of the German Archaeological Institute. Nearly 200 scholars and students from Asia, Europe, America, and Australia participated in the conference. More than 100 lectures were given and poster-sessions were presented by those researchers, who could not be incorporated into the
lecture programme. Finally 66 papers on South Asian Archaeology found their way into the proceedings – covering topics from Upper Palaeolithic Rock Art in Balochistan to life and times of Sir Mortimer Wheeler in India in the Late 40s.
