520 8  Volume 6, in Walter Spink's detailed analysis of the 
       creation and development of the Ajanta caves, during the 
       reign of the emperor Harisena (c.460-c.477) has had a 
       profound and often upsetting impact on the understanding 
       of Indian history in the so-called Golden Age. The author 
       contends that through the discipline of Art History one 
       can in fact change the established view of cultural 
       developments in the crucial "Classic Age" (5th Century 
       CE). One of his major aims is to prove that it was the 
       Vakatakas, under the emperor Harisena, and not the Guptas,
       that brought Indian culture to its apogee in the late 470s
       and to show that by analyzing and organizing Ajanta's 
       "defining feature" in revealing developmental sequences, 
       one can support, with specifics, the revolutionary (but 
       now increasingly accepted) "short chronology" for which 
       the author is well known. These "defining features" range 
       from the changing types of Buddha images and living 
       arrangements for the monks, to the precise analysis of the
       evolution of pillars, doorways, and excavation techniques.
       The volume also includes, at the start, a discussion of 
       the transforming effect of competition, and finally war, 
       as a key to Ajanta's highly driven development, its 
       florescence, and finally its sad demise.
