: Shodhganga: New look on the kushan bengali

Rajghat.—The ancient site of Banaras has been identified with the ruins of Rajghat. The excavations at Rajghat brought to light several structures of burnt bricks from stratum III which has been assigned to the Kushan and early Gupta periods. Six periods of human occupation ranging from the 6 th-5th century B.C to the 17th century A.D were exposed at Rajghat. The other finds, reflecting the Kushan influence over Rajghat, include the typical Kushan pottery, Kushan coins, votive tanks and many inscribed seals with characters of the 1st century A.D (IAR 1957-58)
