The book deliberates in detail on Kushana archaeological sites and their nature of habitation in Jammu region. The increased pace of archaeological research in recent decades has provided a connected account of the history of Kushana in Jammu region primarily based on archaeology. This book charts the flow of Jammu region¿s Kushana archaeological history in all its continuities and diversities from its early settlement to 3rd - 4th centuries A. D. The settlement pattern of Kushana depends upon the patterns created in the past, and was therefore, conditioned by very different standards of technological development and moulded by environments differing significantly from those found in Jammu region. To understand the distribution of Kushana settlement which is in the form of more than eighty sites, as it appears today in Jammu region, it has been investigated what has happened over the past two thousand years. From the survey of the various sites, the picture, which emerges, is that the Kushana settlements are mostly concentrated in the areas adjoining to rivers Chenab and Tawi in Jammu district; rivers Ravi and Ujh in Kathua district.
