Over the past forty years, Mark Kenoyer – Sikander as he is commonly called at Harappa and in different parts of Pakistan and India – has been a leading contributor and role model for sharing the past with those in the present. In a world where the search for more and increasingly narrow cultural ‘identities’ accompanies an escalation of nationalisms and bitter conflicts, seeking out variability and expressions of hybridization represent added value. The scientific career of Mark has, and still does, provide that value and has extended extraordinary benefits to many scholars and especially to those who have contributed to the present volume.

Abstract

Over the past forty years, Mark Kenoyer – Sikander as he is commonly called at Harappa and in different parts of Pakistan and India – has been a leading contributor and role model for sharing the past with those in the present. In a world where the search for more and increasingly narrow cultural ‘identities’ accompanies an escalation of nationalisms and bitter conflicts, seeking out variability and expressions of hybridization represent added value. The scientific career of Mark has, and still does, provide that value and has extended extraordinary benefits to many scholars and especially to those who have contributed to the present volume.
