Hope all of you are doing fine. I am doing fine by His grace. Here I am continuing with the sessions in Std IX.C,
History : It was taught by TT Antony sir. Basically, we were taught the Indian history of ancient and medieval age. We started with the Paleolithic ages, and how we developed the Indus Valley civilization. We learned the religions of Jainism & Buddhism that spurt out of India. Then, we started learning kingdoms one by one in chronological order from Mauryan Dynasty (Chandrgupta Maurya BC 300), Alexander the great, Satavahanas, Ashoka the great (Kalinga) and others. The Gupta Dyansty (AD 320) under Chandragupta Vikramaditya, Harshavardhana (AD 600), the Chalukyas (Pulakesin II who defeated Harsha in 640s). In South India , the Cheras (around AD 800), the Cholas (Raja Raja Chola & Rajendra Chola) and the Pandyas (around 1200) (Mahendravarman). Back to North India , the Delhi Sultanate under Sultana Raziya till Ibrahim Lodi (defeated by Babur); the Tughlaks, the Khiljis and so on. Mughals from Babur (1498- the first battle of Panipat) through Humayun (Sher Shah in between), Akbar the great (16th century), Jahangir, Shah Jahan, Aurangezeb (1710 -1761) (then small kingdoms till 1862).Sorry for being over descriptive and boring you; now I shall be concise.
