India history and geography
Source: What is India: Inscriptions of the ŚilāhārasMāhirihāra (माहिरिहार) or Māhirahāra is the name of a village mentioned in the “Bhadāna grant of Aparājita”. Māhirihāra, the viṣaya in which it was included, may be identical with the territorial division of Mahāgirihāra mentioned in the Anjaneri plates (First Set) of the Hariścandrīya king Bhogaśakti.
These copper plates (mentioning Māhirihāra) were found in 1881 with the headman of Bhere, a village about ten miles north of Bhivaṇḍī, the chief town of the Bhivaṇḍī tālukā of the Thāṇā District in the Mahārāṣṭra State. The grant was made at Sthānaka on the occasion of the Karkaṭa saṅkrānti (called) Dakṣiṇāyana, which occurred on the fourth tithi of the dark fortnight of Āṣāḍha in the expired Śaka year 919, when the cyclic year was Hemlamba.
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.
