POSTGUPTA PERIOD
Northern India (Post Gupta to Muslim conquest)
Many centuries elapsed from the time of Huns invasion till the coming of the Mohammedans in the twelfth century without leaving traces of history behind. Not much political history is known during this so called dark age, but definitely this was a transition point in the Indian history. India entered a new era of developments both in art and literature. The limited coinage of petty kingdoms declined during seventh to ninth century. Rajput clans rose to supreme power and emerged as the dominant powers of Hindustan. With the advent of Palas, the Bengal emerged as a independent empire and remained so thereafter.
An attempt has been made to explain the important developments and the coinage of the so called medieval age of India. Please click on the thumb nail image to learn more.
