Vizag, February 22, 2026: The Archaeology Museum at Andhra University in Visakhapatnam stands as a bridge between ancient Telugu heritage and modern learners.

Packed with coins from Satavahana and Vijayanagara eras, copper plate grants, prehistoric axes, Neolithic pottery, and evolving Telugu script inscriptions, it draws from sites across Andhra like Amaravati stupas and river basins.

Students explore rulers' economies, craftsmen’s skills, and cultural shifts through direct contact with originals.

Guest faculty S Sitaramaraju highlights that no classroom talk matches the insight gained from seeing artifacts up close. The collection covers local dynasties including Kakatiya, Chalukya, and Qutb Shahi influences, blending regional pride with broader Indian history.
