Indians, from the remotest times have divided this country into two parts — North and South. The name “Dakhshina” or the South, extended from Narmada to the extremity of the Peninsula. The word Dekhan is designated to the ancient Dakhshina. It is the largest tract of the country bounded on the north by the Narmada and the Mahanadi, on the east by the Bay of Bengal, on the west by the Arabian Sea and on the south by Nilgiri Hills and the Southern Pammer. The study of the Dekhan is very important as it is the history of the nine most glorious centuries of this country. This period was one of high civilization and Historical celebrity. During the epoch of the Ashoka, Dekhan was not at all uncivilized, the art of writing was known to them a long time back and the inscriptions of the Ashoka were very well understood. From the military stand point, south was never so strong before as large parts of North were axed and the kings succeeded in vanquishing many rulers of North. Dekhan had also the most remarkable gift of the culture, art and architecture. Talking of Dekhan history virtually means the talking of the remarkable monuments of India. But most unfortunately the student who wishes to know what was the History of the Dekhan does not know what to consult. The history is lost in obscurity. The chronology of these dynasties looked quite mysterious. The author thus gave a very deep though on the subject and came out with the conclusion that what was wanted most was to arrange the parts and make a whole work of its. His conclusion gave birth to this book which is a masterpiece in itself on the study of Ancient History of the Dekhan.
