His Services, Contribution & Achievements
Keywords:
Ahmad Hasan Dani, archaeologist, Department of ArchaeologyAbstract
It is my honour to enlist and highlight the services and contributions of Late Professor Ahmad Hasan Dani, who recently died on January 26, 2009 at the age of 88 years. He led a very active life and got great fame. His personality is well known in the field of archaeology, art and architecture, history, epigraphy and numismatics. He was a world reputed scholar and there is no need to write about his personality or his work. His services are so longer and contributions are too much that he himself didn't remember and record these figures. It was in the last year (2008) of his life that his wife requested Prof. M. Farooq Swati (Chairman), Department of Archaeology, University of Peshawar to provide her the list of published work of Prof. Ahmad Hasan Dani. The said task was given to me, which was accomplished and provided. It was appreciated and properly acknowledged by Mrs. Dani. Many people have written a lot about him, his contributions and achievements. Similarly his biography and services were greatly highlighted in the many reputed daily newspapers and magazines after his death. In view of his extensive contributions it was not possible to mention here all these things in detailed discussion which need to be published in a book form. Here the author has attempted to compile a complete profile of Late Prof. Ahmad Hasan Dani along with a detailed bibliography of his published work in the form of listed categories described below.
