India history and geography
Source: archive.org: Geography in Ancient Indian inscriptionsRauhītaka (रौहीतक).—The name occurs in the Praśasti of Lākhā Maṇḍal at Madha. It may be gathered from Rājataraṅgiṇī that Rauhītaka is the name of a town and a district in Northern India. It probably corresponds, as Dr. Buhler suggested, to the modern town of Rohtak, the head-quarters of a district in Haryana State, forty-three miles north-east of Delhi.
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.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
