Abstract
STUDENTS of Indian archæology will welcome this second edition of Dr. E. Mackay's useful text book on the Indus civilizations. The magnificent volume of Sir John Marshall on "Mohenjo-daro and theMndus Civilization" is far too expensive for the average archæologist, and the other publications of the Archæological Survey of India are also expensive and not easily accessible. In this new edition the illustrations have been enlarged and increased in number ; but it is a pity that the amulets referred to on pages 59-60 are not included in the additional illustrations
