Summary, etc Science and technology in ancient and medieval India covered all the major branches of human knowledge and activities, including mathematics, astronomy, physics, chemistry, medical science and surgery, fine arts, mechanical and production technology, civil engineering and architecture, shipbuilding and navigation, sports and games. Ancient India was a land of sages, saints and seers as well as a land of scholars and scientists. Ancient India's contributions in the field of astronomy are well known and well documented.
