Director-General of Archaeological Survey of India (ASI), New Delhi, Kishor Basa visited the Robert Bruce Foote Sangankal Archaeological Museum in Ballari on Saturday and expressed his happiness over the systematic display of artefacts and quality information on pre-history provided here.
“It is indeed a great pleasure visiting the museum at Ballari. It is not merely a tribute to the father of Indian pre-history, but also a means of displaying the evolution of human beings in various forms, a link between the global and local in terms of human adaptation to various climatic and cultural phases,” he said.
Mr. Basa, who is also the Chairman of the National Monuments Authority, said that he had rarely come across such a museum at the district-level in the country.
