Tales of the Past: The Odisha Saga written by Sibashis Mahapatra

Odisha's medieval history rarely gets more than a footnote treatment: a temple here, an Ashokan war there. In this episode, we dig into Sibashis Mahapatra's "Tales of the Past: The Odisha Saga," a nine-essay collection that resurrects forgotten kings, lost battles, and the odd loyal Brahmin general along the way. We talk about why the book skips a straight timeline in favor of standalone stories, what makes the Hamvira Deva chapter hit harder than the rest, and whether a slim essay collection can actually do justice to centuries of Kalingan and Gajapati history. Plus, a few of these chapters had lives of their own before the book, and we get into where they first ran and why that matters.
