The paper gives a short review of the growth of Indian Palaeolithic archaeology, pointing out the limitations of studying secondary sites associated with alluvial sediments. Attention is then drawn to the varied information that could be expected from primary sites for understanding the behavioural patterns of Stone Age societies. The usefulness of the new approach and the various field techniques and methods it entails is illustrated with reference to the multidisciplinary work on the Acheulian culture of the Hunsgi valley in Peninsular India
