About the Book

Depuis vingt ans une mission franco-bangladaise pluridisciplinaire explore le site archeologique de Mahasthangarh au Bangladesh, l'antique Pundranagara des sources sanskrites; un premier rapport en a ete publie chez le present editeur en 2007. La poursuite des recherches a livre de nombreuses et riches informations sur ce poste avance cree par l'empire Maurya sur sa frontiere orientale (IVe-IIIe s. av. n.e.), devenu une ville 'capitale' au cours des siecles suivants, en particulier aux VIIIe-XIe siecles, lors des dynasties Pala et Sena. Important centre politique et religieux ou cohabitaient trois religions indiennes, la cite fut aussi un lieu de croisement de grands circuits regionaux, Nord-Sud entre les regions de l'Assam et du Nepal vers la baie du Bengale, Ouest vers la vallee du Gange mais aussi une etape des chemins venant de la Chine du sud-ouest (Sichuan, Yunnan). La prosperite de la ville a cesse vers le XIIIe siecle lorsque le Bengale est passe sous la domination des musulmans du Sultanat de Delhi, mais aussi, sans doute, suite a un important tremblement de terre a cette meme epoque.Le volume presente les collections de materiels decouverts lors de fouilles 1993-1999, dont l'analyse archeologique a ete presentee dans le premier volume. Outre quelques fragments de sculptures de belle facture--d'autres plus nombreuses ont ete recueillies au cours des fouilles 2001-2011-, on soulignera la richesse et la diversite des productions de figurines en terre cuite, creations artistiques tout a fait comparables a leurs equivalentes du Bengale occidental et manifestations d'une religiosite affirmee; la reprise de deux articles publies en Inde confirme l'interet du site et de sa region. Les contributions du volume se sont egalement attachees a decrire divers aspects de la vie quotidienne des habitants de la ville au cours des siecles: ceramique, outillage lithique, nombreux objets en terre cuite, etc. L'etude archeometrique des perles publiees dans le premier volume apporte de nouvelles donnees sur cet artisanat de Mahasthan dans le cadre plus vaste de la meme 'industrie' dans l'Ocean Indien.Les informations fournies par toutes ces etudes -ainsi que deux rapports de fouille et une analyse methodologique approfondie (calibration des dates radiocarboniques et archeomagnetisme)- ouvrent des perspectives tout a fait nouvelles sur l'histoire de la cite et sur le role qu'elle a pu jouer au Nord-Bengale dont elle fut le centre, mais aussi sur sa place dans le Bengale antique. Un certain nombre d'interpretations acquises sont en cours de correction, et une nouvelle vision de l'evolution de la ville et de sa region est en train de se dessiner: la preparation d'un troisieme volume sur les fouilles 2001-2011 en fournira les principaux arguments et resultats.
