In Chola temples, Devadana land was related to what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Land donated to a temple

The direct answer is A: Devadana was land donated to a temple. In the Chola period, temples were not only places of worship; they also managed land, labour, produce and local economic activity. A grant called devadana assigned land or its revenue for the support of a deity and temple. Option A is correct because “deva” refers to a deity and the term is associated with a religious endowment. Option B is wrong because a Harappan cemetery belongs to much earlier archaeological evidence. Option C is wrong because a Mauryan military camp is a different political and military institution. Option D is wrong because a Gupta observatory is unrelated to the Chola temple land grant. Remember: devadana means a donation made for a deity or temple, so connect it with temple economy.
