? About the book:? Glimpses of Buddhist Legacy in Orissa by Dr. Bimalendu Mohanty one of my more serious students is an excellent compilation of the facts gleaned from historical and archaeological sources.? It embodies the latest findings from recent and in some cases the ongoing excavations of the Buddhist sites in Orissa.? The book s plea for planned systematic and thorough exploration and excavation of the Buddhist sites deserves serious attention of scholars and researchers so as to enable posterity to have a thorough and evidence-based knowledge of the Buddhist past of Orissa.?
