India history and geography
Source: What is India: Inscriptions of the ŚilāhārasVallavāḍa or Valavāḍa is the name of a village mentioned in the “Kolhāpur plates of Gaṇḍarāditya”. Vallavāḍa, which is mentioned in several grants of the Kolhāpur Śilāhāras as the place of the royal camp, is variously identified. Valavaḍe, 16 miles to the south-west of Kolhāpur, Vālve in the Sātārā District, about 25 miles north-east of Kolhāpur, Valivaḍe, about 5 miles to the east of Kolhāpur, are some of the proposed identifications. Of these the last one appears plausible; for the place is described as a village. Kolhāpur, where many records of the Śilāhāras have been found, was evidently the capital. Vallavāḍa may have been the place of royal residence not very far from the capital.
These copper plates (mentioning Vallavāḍa) were discovered some years ago while levelling the Khāsbāg grounds in Kolhāpur. It records the grant, by Gaṇḍarāditya, of two nivartanas of land in the village of Koṃnijavāḍa situated in the khampaṇa (subdivision) of Koḍavalli comprised in the Miriñji-deśa. It is dated in the expired Saka year 1048, the cyclic year being Parābhava, on the occasion of the Dakṣiṇāyana-saṅkrānti, on Saturday, the fourth tithi of the bright fortnight of Āṣāḍha.
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.
