Does history leave you scratching your head? Does the endless parade of kings, battles and dates make you yawn?

Well then, this is the book to change that! It is full of amazing, often hilarious and sometimes baffling stories from ancient India. From the Stone Age to the Golden Age, India’s past is full of interesting people, mad antics and unbelievable connections. From central Asia to Kanyakumari and ancient Rome to southeast Asia—ancient India was linked with the world in ways you wouldn’t expect!

With quizzes, timelines and maps, and laugh-out-loud funny cartoons—the book truly unpacks ancient Indian history and tells you what we know about names, places (as far as we can decipher inscriptions), events and motives (as far as we can figure out!) and of course the strange things that humans do, whether back then or now.
