Correct Answer: (D) Both (A) and (B)
Explanation:
Robert Bruce Foote was indeed both a geologist and an archaeologist. While working as a geologist for the Geological Survey of India, his keen eye led him to discover the first conclusive Paleolithic stone tool (a hand axe) in India at Pallavaram, near Chennai, in 1863. This discovery significantly contributed to the field of Indian archaeology.
