The varied topics dealt by these scholars are: land use and settlement in the Vijayanagara Metropolitan region; reflections of the commodity process in the travel literature; Nayakkattanam / Sirmai; depiction of foreigners in sculptures; noblemen's palaces; nayankara system; inscriptional study of Vijayanagara city; some rare forms of Siva and Vishnu; distance administration; Bhuvaraha bronze from Tirupathi; Persian traveller Rafiuddin Shirazi's portrayal of Vijayanagar; Lepakshi Virabhadra temple; centers of production and market system; maintenance and repair of irrigation works; administrative divisions; Harihara images from Hampi and history of music. This book, with 6 maps, 8 figures and diagrams, several tables and 24 plates, is an important addition to existing sources for the Vijayanagara empire.
