It stinks to be an after-thought. Perhaps, it ain't easy being the middle sibling either. The pleasant environs of Lodhi Garden may be anything but ignored in the life and geography of 21st century Delhi, but in the historical annals of Dehli, the Sayyids and Lodis - whose mausoleums grace the modern garden's corners - are often relegated to sandwiched obscurity between the towering edifices of the preceding 'Delhi Sultanate' and the succeeding Mughals. Pity, since their hundred-and-twelve years were ones of fascinating change and continuity, social flux and the rehabilitation of the city following Timur's apocalyptic invasion of 1398.
