Finding Roman coins in India indicates what?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Trade contact between India and the Roman world
Roman coins found in Indian archaeological sites are evidence of contact with the Roman world, especially during periods of active long-distance trade. They may have circulated as currency, bullion or valuable objects, so coins alone do not prove the exact form or volume of trade. They do not decode the Indus script or directly describe Mauryan or Gupta policies.
