India history and geography
: Google Books: Medieval Orissa: A Socio-economic StudyPotters in ancient India (Medieval Orissa) represented one of the occupational groups commonly found in Townships or Urban centers (nagari).鈥擜n example (of Township) is provided by the Nagari plates of Anangabhima III, dated A.D. 1230, which describe an assigned township which contained four large houses of the dimension of royal residences and thirty other houses. The occupational groups present in the settlement were [e.g., a potter (办耻尘产丑补办腻谤补)]. The range of occupations is large, some of them being rural in character. The context in which the township (or Urban centres鈥�nagari) is assigned suggest that nagaris in such cases were perhaps extended villages, formed out of a cluster of several contiguous villages and thus assuming physical and consequently, economic dimensions much larger than those of an ordinary village settlement.
: archive.org: Bharatiya vastu-sastra (History)Potters in Ancient India, according to M. Foucher (Beginning of Buddhistic Art).鈥斺�淔rom the Vedic times, Indian civilization had at its disposal the services not only of the carpenter, the wheelwright and the blacksmith, of the potter, the weaver and the fabricators of objects of prime necessity but also of those whom we call art-workers, painters, goldsmiths, carvers in ivory or wood etc.鈥�.
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.
