Land System in Northern India, c.a.d. 400-c.a.d. 700
Early Indian Economics. Studies in the Economic Life of Northern and Western India c. 200 B.C.-300 A.D
Sugar-Making in Ancient India
sugarcane, is found in the Atbarvaveda1), Vjiasaneyg 2), Maitrajya.di3) and Taittirtya 4) Sa.mbitds and subsequent Sfitras 5). This indicates that the Aryans knew the plant from a very early time 6). That sugarcane is indigenous to India is beyond dispute. The word iksu has no parallel in any other Indo-Aryan language, which suggests that the Indo-Aryans only knew about the plant after entering India. There is, however, to the best of our knowled…
Sāmanta—its varying significance in Ancient India
In the epigraphic and literary records of medieval Hindu India the term sāmanta is used to mean vassals and nobles. Thus the sāmantas were vitally connected with the structure of Indian society. But, in spite of its importance, the term has not received a full-length study. According to its derivation the term sāmanta is an adjective and means ‘being on all sides’, ‘neighbouring’ or ‘bordering’. In earlier works we find it used in this sense
Quasi-Manorial Rights in Ancient India
QUASI-MANORIAL RIGHTS IN ANCIENT INDIA BY LALLANJI GOPAL (University of Allahabad) There is no indication that in ancient India cultivators were tied to the soil like the European serfs. They enjoyed the freedom to migrate to another state if they were oppressed This right is implied in the texts of the early medieval period. Thus, the Brhannäradïya Purdna (c. A.D. 75 0-900)2) says that when much afflicted by the sufferings caused by famine and t…
Evolution of Morals in the Epics
The Śukraniti- a Nineteenth-Century Text
Ever since the publication of the text, scholars have disagreed on the date of the composition of the Śukraniti. Oppertx placed it very early, in the period of the Smrtis and the early epic literature. V. S. Agrawala and Syamlal Pandya regard it as a work of the Gupta period. But generally the text is utilized as a source for the early medieval period, especially the eleventh or the twelfth century. Rajendra Lai Mitra held that the work could not…
Textiles in Ancient India
TEXTILES IN ANCIENT INDIA LALLANJI GOPAL (Allahabad) A study of the textile industry in ancient India is initially handicapped by difficulties in determining the fabrics utilised in the industry. The literary works simply mention the names of the different varieties of cloths without indicating the source of fabrics, though the etymological meaning of the term itself may sometimes suggest something. It is also likely, on the analogy of the presen…
Ownership of Agricultural Land in Ancient India
The various theories on the subject') may be broadly divided into three, according to whether they emphasise the claim of the community, the king or the peasant as the owner of the soil. V. A. Smith 2) and, following him, J. N. Samaddar 3) express the view that the soil was the property of the king. Others who support this theory are B. Breloer 4), Shamasastry 5), Hopkins 6) and Biihler 7). Maine8) is the chief propounder of the view that agricul…
