Product Description

This book is the outcome of my research on Quaternary period in the Manipur Valley conducted from the Deccan College Post-Graduate and Research Institute, Pune. During the research work, field data was collected through extensive surveys, and fieldworks carried out by various several other agencies in Manipur. Study and analysis generated useful information which is presented in this book with hope that, it will give a clear concept of Palaeo environment of Manipur valley to the students and scholars. In order to reconstruct the chronology of the Quaternary formation, the tectonic movements and climate changes in Manipur valley during the Neogene have also been discussed. The Quaternary deposits of Manipur valley developed due to various complex processes. In absence of palaeontological evidence and paucity of absolute dating a sincere attempt has been made on the basis of altemetric position, geomorphic processes and forms, degree of weathering, archaeological finds; and a few absolute dates.
