XXVII. Some Coins of the Maukharis, and of the Thanesar Line

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  15 March 2011

Extract

The history of the sixth century in Northern India is extremely difficult. As the Gupta empire fell to pieces petty states arose, of which but scanty records are available in the few inscriptions so far discovered. A recent find of coins seems to throw fresh light on the period, and in particular to afford material for fixing dates more exactly than has been possible hitherto.
