Discover some aspects of the geography of prehistory in India and the Himalayas (Sikkim), with Olivier Chiron, PhD in geography.
Archaeological sites are varied in the Indian territory and abundant in the northwest of India but also in the Indus or Soan valley in Pakistan or even in Sikkim to the south of India.
We will turn our gaze on prehistory in the world to this part of Asia poorly known.
The main sites are in the Siwaliks region (mountain range at the foot of the Himalayas), Nepal and India. What is the place of prehistory in the history of these regions? What are the main discoveries? To be discovered during the European Heritage Days.
