Answer:
Delhi is not just one urban settlement, but a conglomeration of many urban settlements belonging to different periods. This trait of Delhi was noticed well by an Arab traveller Shihab-al Din al- Umari who visited India during the fourteenth century. He says:
Delhi is composed of many towns (integrated into one). Every one is known by its own name. Delhi, being one of them, has given its name to all of them. It is extensive in length and breadth and covers an area of forty miles…At present, Delhi consists of twenty-one towns.[1]
