Harsola Copperplate - The Grants

The Grants

The Harsola copperplate grants were found at Harsola in district Ahmedabad in Gujarat. This is a pair of grants, each engraved on two plates.

  • Grant A: grant to father
  • Grant B: grant to son

The early parts of the text in the two grants is identical, although the two grants were obviously engraved in different hands. Apparently the grants were linked by a ring, with the royal seal (garuda) at the end of Grant A, which was placed after B.

Famous quotes containing the word grants:

    ... liberty is the one thing no man can have unless he grants it to others.
    Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)

    Our religion ... is itself profoundly sad—a religion of universal anguish, and one which, because of its very catholicity, grants full liberty to the individual and asks no better than to be celebrated in each man’s own language—so long as he knows anguish and is a painter.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
