John Marshall's appointment as Director-General of the ASI brought about a significant shift in Indian archaeology. As the first professional archaeologist to work in India, Marshall leveraged his experience from excavations in Greece and Crete. While he shared an interest in remarkable discoveries with Cunningham, Marshall was equally dedicated to uncovering patterns of everyday life. |
