Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Bhaṭṭi (भट्टि).—A sanskrit poet who lived in the 7th century A.D. His most important composition is the Mahākāvya, Rāvaṇavadha, which has become very popular and famous by the name Bhaṭṭikāvya. This mahākāvya deals with the story of Rāmāyaṇa in its twentytwo Kāṇḍas (cantos). The kāvya is believed to have been composed at Valabhī in obedience to the request of King Śrīdharasena.

The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
India history and geography
Bhaṭṭi (भट्टि) is the name of a Brāhman mentioned in the Pallava grant of king Śivaskandavarman. He is als known as Bhaṭi. The Prākrit Pallava king Śivaskandavarman of Kāñcī, who was affiliated to the Brahmanical gotra of the Bhāradvājas, confirmed and enlarged, in the eighth year of his reign, a donation, made formerly by the great king, the lord Bappa (i.e., probably his father), to certain Brahmans (e.g., Bhaṭṭi), who resided at Āpiṭṭi or Āpiṭṭī, and were bhojakas, i.e., probably freeholders of the vilalge Chillarekakoḍuṃka or Chillerekakoḍuṃka.
According to the 4th century Pallava grant, “... and we grant here an immunity (viz.) the garden in Chillarekakoḍuṃka, which was formerly given by the great king, the lord Bappa, a giver of many krors of gold and of one hundred thousand ox-ploughs,—while he made (the gift) a means of the increase of the merit, longevity, power and fame of (his) own family and race —to the Brāhmans, freeholders of Chillarekakoḍuṃka (and) inhabitants of Āpiṭṭi, (viz.) ... to Bhaṭi (Bhaṭṭi) of the Kassava (Kāśyapa) gotra one share of the produce ...”

The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
