These three-dimensional landscape visualizations were made for a geomorphology publication investigating four major landform-settlement configurations in the Deccan plateau of India, from antiquity to the end of the 18th century. Following a southeast to northwest alignment along the Godavari River lineament, the Satavahana kingdom (100 BCE to 200 CE)‘s capital city of Paithan was located at a navigable sacred ford
across the river (tirtha), which was linked with upstream confluences (sangams), tanks (kunds), mountain passes (ghats), and port cities on the Arabian Sea.
