Archaeological Anthropology is a sub-discipline of anthropology that studies past human societies through the recovery and interpretation of material remains. These remains include artifacts, architecture, biofacts, and cultural landscapes that help reconstruct past human behavior, socio-cultural patterns, subsistence strategies, technological developments, and evolutionary changes.

This discipline integrates the methods of archaeology with the theoretical perspectives of anthropology to understand the long-term development of human culture and society. In the Indian context, archaeological anthropology plays a crucial role in tracing the cultural evolution of the Indian subcontinent from the earliest hominins to the rise of historical civilizations like the Indus Valley Civilization. The history of prehistoric archaeology in India can be traced through several distinct phases marked by significant discoveries, methodological improvements, institutional developments, and contributions of key scholars.
