DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Siamese Manuscript holds the distinction of being the very first document relating to Indian Astronomy to reach Europe in a pristine form. Some fragments of Indian Astronomy had undoubtedly reached Europe in earlier times, but those tidbits were likely received in a highly altered form due to difficulties in translation, and the so-called cultural barrier. The Siamese Manuscript helped overcome this barrier by being a compendium of Indian astronomical knowledge in plain Siamese. The timing of the arrival of the manuscript in Europe was significant. After a couple hundred years the Renaissance was finally bearing fruit, and European intellectual prowess was at a peak. The deeper principles of Indian Astronomy, which had gone over the heads of the Greeks and the Arabs who first encountered them, could now be fully understood and appreciated for the first time by people outside India.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book presents the basic fundamentals of descriptive archaeoastronomy and its application to the astronomical descriptions found in ancient Indian scriptures. Archaeoastronomy is a branch of positional astronomy that helps to determine the epochs of ancient astronomical alignments and special astronomical events. In this book, only the descriptions of special stellar alignments and events found in ancient texts can identify the antiquity of the descriptions. India possesses a large volume of ancient scriptures like Vedas and Puranas which contain many astronomical descriptions as in ancient India positional astronomy was well developed. The antiquities of these texts are determined through archaeoastronomical techniques. Major events like Mahabharata War are dated and using these dates a chronology of ancient India is determined. The astronomically determined chronology is compared with the results from various archaeological, palaeoclimatological, geological and genealogical investigations of ancient India. This introductory book interests readers interested in unveiling the mystery involved with the protohistory of this ancient civilization.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSo far as the chronology of Indian history is concerned, Indian writers were well versed in astronomy. They have given astronomical dateline everywhere whether it is literary sources or epigraphic records. So, the need is to formulate an ancient calendar so that the dateline given into literature and epigraphic records may be verified and a true chronology of Indian history may be constructed. The present author has made an humble attempt to construct the 7000 years old calendar and has successfully verified the astronomical dateline quoted in epigraphic records, Purunas and other Sanskrit texts to fix the epochs of various events of Indian history and personalities. Hope the present work will be helpful to learned and laity alike for understanding the actual and factual dateline of Indian history.
