India history and geography
Source: What is India: Inscriptions of the ŚilāhārasMāhirahāra (माहिरहार) or Māhirihāra (fl. 1034 A.D.) is the name of a village mentioned in the “Berlin museum plates of Cittarāja”. Māhirahāra in which the donated field was situated has already been shown to be identical roughly with the modern tāluka of Bhivaṇḍī of the Thāṇā District.
These copper plates (mentioning Māhirihāra) have been lying in the Berlin Museum for a long time. Their original findspot is not known. Its object is to record the grant, by Chittarāja, of a field called Abhinava-deva-ccebhā in the village of Kunde situated in the viṣaya (district) of Māhirahāra containing sixty-six (villages) to the Śaiva ascetic Jñānaśiva, a disciple of the holy Vāḍācārya, who belonged to the Western Āmnāya. The grant is dated as the fourteenth tithi (Śivarātri) of the bright fortnight of the second Caitra in the Śaka year 956, the cyclic year being Bhava.
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.
