Economical system of the post-Mauryan India
Economical system of the post-Mauryan India
Apart from flourishing trade, other significant features of this period are: monetization of economy, development of crafts, growth of urban centres and weakening of state control over the farming operations.
The post-Mauryan India saw the monetization of economy on an unprecedented scale. The Indo- Greek rulers were the first to issue gold coins. Menander was perhaps the last of the Indo-Greek rulers to issue gold coins. After them the Kushanas issued them in considerable numbers. In the opinion of some scholars, all Kushana gold coins were minted out of Roman gold.
