History

trade

In this Class 12 History topic from “Kings, Farmers and Towns,” students explore how trade connected kingdoms, farming communities and growing towns in early Indian history. They learn about local and long-distance exchange, merchants, markets, trade routes, ports and the movement of goods such as textiles, spices and metals. The topic also examines how inscriptions, coins, literature and archaeological evidence help historians understand economic activity, urban growth and changing social relationships.

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. Trade encouraged markets, artisans and urban life

Trade brought buyers, sellers and transported goods together, encouraging permanent markets and specialised occupations. Artisans, merchants, money handlers and service providers gathered around such centres, increasing urban activity and population. Trade did not destroy all towns, have no effect or exist only in forests; therefore the broad economic explanation in A is correct.
