India history and geography
Source: archive.org: Personal and geographical names in the Gupta inscriptionsPalāśāṭṭapārśvika (पलाशाट्टपार्श्विक) or Palāśāṭṭa is a place-name classified as a pārśvika and mentioned in the Gupta inscription No. 28. The Gupta empire (r. 3rd-century CE), founded by Śrī Gupta, covered much of ancient India and embraced the Dharmic religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. Palāśāṭṭa may mean ‘an aṭṭa or turret of Palāśa trees’. It is possible that there were many Palāśa trees by the side of a hill and they may have formed a turret on the hill. The locality near such a situation may have been described as Palāṣāṭṭa-pārśvika.
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.
