India history and geography
: Singhi Jain Series: Ratnaprabha-suri’s Kuvalayamala-katha (history)Taṇuva (तणुव) refers to “scorched persons� and was commonly found in the city of Mathurā at some point in time in ancient India, according to Uddyotanasūri in his 8th-century Kuvalayamālā (a Prakrit Campū, similar to Kāvya poetry).—The Kuvalayamala (779 A.D.) is full of cultural material which gains in value because of the firm date of its composition. [...] On page 55.11 f., there is a description of poor home (ṇāh-ṇḍ) in the city of Mathurā. In its population there was a sprinkling of disabled persons: [e.g., Scorched (ٲḍiⲹ or ٲ걹)] [...]. The invaders of the orphan home exchange their views as to which sin may be washed at which holy place. [...]

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.
