On Human Sacrifices In Ancient India is a book written by Rajendralala Mitra and published in 1876. The book explores the practice of human sacrifices in ancient India, focusing on the Vedic and Puranic periods. Mitra provides a detailed analysis of the various types of human sacrifices that were performed during this time, including the Rajasuya and Asvamedha sacrifices. He also examines the social and religious factors that led to the practice of human sacrifices in ancient India, and the gradual decline of the practice over time. Mitra draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient texts, inscriptions, and archaeological evidence, to provide a comprehensive and insightful account of this fascinating aspect of Indian history. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Indian history, religion, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
