India history and geography
Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Indian Epigraphical GlossaryTalāra.—(IE 8-2; EI 22; LP; BL; HD), administrator of a city or prefect of the city police; same as Talavara, Talārī or Kotwāl. Talavara of early South Indian inscriptions means a Rājasthānīya (a Duke or a viceroy) according to some commentators and the Kotwāl or a city magistrate according to others. A subdivision of high class Khatris of the Punjab is called Tālwār. Cf. Tala-rakṣa or Tal-ārakṣa; also called Ārakṣika and Daṇḍapāśika. See Bhandarkar's List, No. 579; IHQ, 1960, p. 266. Note: talāra is defined in the “Indian epigraphical glossary” as it can be found on ancient inscriptions commonly written in Sanskrit, Prakrit or Dravidian languages.
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.
