Description
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Rashtrakuta
empire of Manyakheta came to power in South India in 753 and ruled for
over two centuries. At its peak the Rashtrakutas of Manyakheta ruled a
vast empire stretching from the Ganges River and Yamuna River doab in
the north to Cape Comorin in the south, in a time of political
expansion, architectural achievements and famous literary contributions.
The Rashtrakuta economy derived its funding from its natural and
agricultural produce, its manufacturing revenues and moneys gained from
its conquests. Cotton was the chief crop of the regions of southern
Gujarat, Khandesh and Berar while cotton yarn and cloth was exported
from Bharoch and incense and perfumes from the ports of Thana and
Saimur. Minnagar, Gujarat, Ujjain, Paithan and Tagara were important
centres of textile industry. White calicos were manufactured in
Burhanpur and Berar and exported to Persia, Turkey, Poland, Arabia and
Cairo.
