INDEPENDANT KINGDOMS


From early times Assam was a significant region in Indian history, yet not much is know about its coinage before the third quarter of the fifteenth century A.D. The earliest coins are those that were issued from Tripura by the ruler Ratnamanikya in 1467. Since then, the coins were issued uninterruptedly till the last quarter of the nineteenth century.

Other coins of Assam were issued by the Ahom, Koch, Kachari and Jayantia dynasties which were closely related to one another. The Ahoms invaded Brahmaputra valley from their former home in the Shan States in 1228. Soon hereafter they firmly established their power in the upper parts of the valley. In course of time Ahom rulers adopted Indian names for themselves along with their Ahomese names. The earliest coin was issued by the king Su-Seng-Pha (Jayadhvaja Singh) in 1648. The Ahomese rulers gave their coins an entirely original octagonal shape, which is said to have been chosen in accordance with a passage, in the Yogini Tantra, which describes Kamarupa as being eight-sided.

  MARATHAS
   
 

The rise of the Marathas began in the seventeenth century under the strong leadership of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaja who rose from the ranks of a soldier in service of the Golkonda Empire, he went on to establish his own kingdom. While he established his power in the north, his brother Venkoji established himself in the south, at Tanjore. While the authority of the former later passed into the hands of the Peshwas, the members of Ekoji’s family continued till the middle of the nineteenth century.

With the usurpation of power by Balaji, the Peshwa Maratha power grew and a great Maratha confederation formed. In 1695 it reached its zenith and dominated Central India and influenced the north and east of the country.
