India history and geography
Source: What is India: Inscriptions of the Candellas, Kacchapaghatas, Pala, etc.Iṭāva is the name of a city mentioned in the “Semrā copper-plate grant of Paramardideva” (1162 A.C). Iṭāva as suggested by Cartellierie, is the modern Etāwah (N.L. 24 ̊ 12’ ; E.L. 78 ̊ 16’). While proposing this identification he had some doubt, but his conjecture is justified by the consideration that the place lies about 30 kms. south-west of Dudāhī i.e., the modern Bīnā, a railway junction between Bhopāl and Jhāṅsī and is known by its complete name Binā-Etāwa, in the khuraī tehsīl of the Sāgar District.
These plates (mentioning Iṭāva) were found at Semrā: a town in the Chatarpur District of the Bundelkhand region (formerly the state of Bijāwar) of Madhya Pradesh. They were issued by Paramardideva to record the confirmation of a grant, from his camp at Sonasara, for the sake of the increase of his own and his parent’s merit and fame.
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.
