Material and cultural interactions between Ladakh and Central Asia from the 1st to the 8th century AD: new ceramic data from the Dras valley

by Samara Broglia de Moura (doctoral student Ã EPHE/CRCAO).

The Dras Valley, located on the border of Kashmir and Baltistan, is a particularly privileged place for analyzing cultural and material exchanges between Ladakh and Central Asia. In this communication, we propose to present four recently documented archaeological sites around the city of Dras focusing in particular on their ceramic productions and comparisons with Central Asian productions. We will see in the course of this talk that these comparative analyzes bring new elements to the understanding of the history of Ladakh during the Koushan and post-Koushan period.
