History
inscriptions
In this Class 12 History topic from “Kings, Farmers and Towns,” students learn how inscriptions help reconstruct the political, social and economic history of early India. They examine records engraved on rocks, pillars, metal plates and other surfaces, including royal orders, land grants and prashastis. The topic develops skills in reading inscriptions as historical evidence, understanding their language and purpose, and assessing what they reveal—as well as what they leave out—about kings, farmers, towns and changing relationships of power.
