Though R.C. Kak had written a small book let on antiquities of Basohli and Ramnagar, and Suraj Saraf had contributed few articles on Ghora Gali scriptures and purmendal temple eulogies on also some writers, in local papers, yet no Lon and illustrated work on the art and culture and antiquity of Jammu region on a whole was not available.

Foreword

My first volume on Antiquities of Chinab vally in Jammu was published in 1999 as after years of tiresome work of preparing estampages of inscriptions, cooper plates, and photography of field archival records and its systematic analysis and classification at the same time I was collecting field material for the 2nd volume on the topic on edited in this book, on the art and antiquity of Chinab valley between 1976 to 2017. During this very theme, I had been working on two senior Fellowships research topics awarded to me one by U.G.C and other by ministry of culture, which were completed and published also from Delhi, under the headings classified pahari and other Tribal dialects of jammu" and 'Naga cult and woodm art" Another master pice work on Acharya Nagsen, the great thinker and philosopher from Nag Seni region of kash-lwar-jammu, was researched upon and published under the head," Naf sen of Milind Panho" (english) and "Raya minauder-ke-Prashan" (Hindi) but in spite of these preoccupations, the idea of completing the 2nd volume on antiquity of Chinab valley (iconography, art and architecture) was not dropped, so far. During my spare time I kept my self engage in preparing small notes on the related topics and also study the concerned material, published or unpublished, which upto this time had not been studied or consolidated at one place.

Though R.C. Kak had written a small book let on antiquities of Basohli and Ramnagar, and Suraj Saraf had contributed few articles on Ghora Gali scriptures and purmendal temple eulogies on also some writers, in local papers, yet no Lon and illustrated work on the art and culture and antiquity of Jammu region on a whole was not available.

Jammu region antiquity, art and culture is rich and varied. It is as rich and valuable as that of Kashmir, Himachal or any adjoining region. The history of the region is equally ancient, rich varied. The antiquity of Ballawar, Manwl Babor and krimchi are comparable with many places in india it speaks highly of Jammu in art consolidated Treasure, and its divergent trends, though having many trends of its own, But all these Trends have not been studied by none in details, nor even by me, so far.

In the present volume an attempt has been made to put the heritage of Jammu and its antiquarian record apertaining to ancient, medieval and modern tames at one place for the information and benefit of its readers as well as students, for their evaluation.

Many short comings in the book may please be not taken note of, as the book is being attempted to finalized at the age of 82 in spite of my ailments of old age.

Hope the readers on well like and appreciate the attempt.
