Evidences
found in the hilly areas of Sitakundu, Chittagong, Rangamati
and Comilla, in the eastsoutheastern belt together with
a group of about a dozen polished celts of fossil-wood discovered
during excavations at the Salban Vihara mound in Mainamati,
certainly indicate the unmistakable footsteps of early man
in this region. Excavations at Mahasthan have revealed cultural
layers dating back to the third century BC. Descriptions
of the area reached as far as Greece and China. Hiuen Tsiang,
a Chinese traveler who visited Mahasthan between 638 645
AD, described an earlier visit to the city by the Buddha.
Ashoka, the great Mauryan emperor (250 BC), built a stupa
in Mahasthan to commemorate a relic left there by the Buddha.
During the first several centuries after Christ many kingdoms-
some Buddhist, others Hinduflourished, then decayed. In
the mid-eighth century the people, tired of anarchy, raised
to the throne an indigenous chief named Gopala. He began
the famous Pala dynasty, whose kings ruled the lower Ganges
and Brahmaputra valleys for more than three hundred years.
The Pala kings were great patrons of art and learning.

The Chandras, also Buddhists and contemporary to the Palas, flourished
in the eastern region of Bangladesh from the ninth to the eleventh
century. The Chandra dynasty left behind an impressive archeological
record of its cultural, religious and political achievements.

During the Pala, Chandra: and later Sena periods, her cotton fabric
(Muslin) was world renowned. Eventually the Bangla school of Buddhism
spread north through Nepal to Tibet and south through Myanmar to
Java. |

Rivers
and Riverine Life |
|
| |
|
|

Bangladesh
is a land created and sustained by rivers. The three great rivers,
the Ganges-Padma, the Brahmaputra-Jamuna and the Meghna, along with
their tributaries discharge into the Bay of Bengal an amount of
water which is the third highest in the world, after the Amazan
and the Congo systems. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
| The
rivers have not only created the alluvial plains of Bangladesh,
they have also fashioned the economic, cultural and social
life of her people. They have proved to be sources of joy
and misery to the people and the land. They have also played
a great role in the history of Bengal. Alexander the Great
who marched upto North India and heard about the mighty
waves of the Ganges dared not cross into this part of the
world. The Mughals who held sway over the rest of India
were only marginally successful in their expeditions into
Bengal. The rivers were the greatest barriers that baffled
the advancing troops of the Mughals. Centuries later, in
1971, it was the rivers that gave the Bangalee freedom fighters
an edge over the dry land soilders of Pakistan. |

The
People Their Avocation |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Bangladesh is predominantly rural
although gradual urbanization is under way. The main callings
of her people agriculture, fishing weaving, pottery, small trade--are
village-based. Her chief resources are her two main crops- rice
and jute. Even for the minority living in Bangladesh's towns and
cities, the real home is their ancestral village home. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
| The
key to the existence and tempo of village life is nature - the land and its seasons. The sowing, growing, and harvesting
of the land follow the cycle of seasons.
Most
people of Bangladesh spring from the same stock, speak the
same language, share the same culture. Although people belong
to four different religions- Islam, Hinduism, Christianity
and Buddhism, the people seem tempered by their lush green
surroundings into a special race Bangalee in character -
transcending religious differences. The produce of her field
and rivers determine taste; the bright sun and humid climate
mould fashions of dress and design.
The Bangalee is proud of his motherland, of his language,
of Bangla literature, Bangalees are of a poetic nature-
emotional sensitive and artistic Even the poorest house
in the villages is adorned by simple expressions of folk
art- if only a pattern of paint on a doorway. Villagers
delight in personal adornment- young girls wear flowers
in their hair. Normal household duties are performed in
the manner of an elaborate ritual- certain acts befit sunrise.
others sunset. |
