Name of the supervisor: Dr. P.R. Chauhan

Research Focus: I am interested in pursuing research in environmental archaeology, especially focusing on the field of geoarchaeology. With my journey into the fields of archaeology and prehistory over the years, the relationships among humans, and their landscapes and environments has fascinated me. My passion lies in the study of the Quaternary landscapes, particularly those from the Pleistocene Epoch, which calls for a multi-disciplinary thinking as well as methodologies; thereby envisaging the next steps of my career in exploring topics situated at the crossroads of earth sciences and archaeology.

Education: MA in Ancient Indian History, Culture, and Archaeology from Deccan College PGRI (2021); BA in History with minors in Geography and English from Savitribai Phule Pune University (2019)
