For example, at Bijapur there is a Kannaḍa inscription on a slab at archaeological museum. It seems to describe the arrangement made for the cultivation of fallow land, etc., under specified conditions, when Khane ajamamuṭa-bāṅe-mojama Gālibakhāna was holding charge of the Thāne-mamale Mahamudābāda. It is dated Śaka 1422.
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.
