Answer:

John Marshall’s was the first professional archaeologist to work in India. His tenure as the Director-General of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) brought about many significant changes in the Indian archaeology. He had vast experience of working in Greece and Crete. He combined all these experiences while working in the ASI into the field. He was interested not only in the discovery in spectacular finds but was also equally interested to look for patterns of the daily life of the people.
