The semester was an introduction to the field of conservation, with a focus on developing conducive skills. Through various introductory exercises, an understanding of what and how to document was achieved. The site, Toraniya Naka at Darbargadh, Bhuj was then documented, and measured drawings were done. Following this, individual inquiries were taken up in assessing the structure, and assigning values to it.  The inquiry chosen here was to research evolution of the form, if any, and how the structure has behaved as an image for the monarchy, with changing symbolisms in each stage.
