Revisiting Taxila: A new approach to the Greco-Buddhist archaeological record

A new analysis of Taxila's archaeological record challenges traditional categorizations of Greco-Buddhist artifacts, revealing complex cultural interactions in ancient Central Asia. By focusing on objects and their historical context rather than ethnic or cultural labels, this study provides a more accurate understanding of the site's significance as a crossroads between East and West. The research employs object-centered analysis to reinterpret the data, offering fresh insights into the dynamics of cultural exchange during Taxila's heyday.
