Question

Define Vidhat in early vedic?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Early Vedic Period

Agriculture was well known to pre aryans & ploughshare is 1st mentioned in early part of Rig Veda

But agriculture was perhaps used to produce fodder only → Predominantly pastoral people with cattle rearing as main occupation

 

Most of the wars were fought for the sake of cows as the term for war in Rig Veda is Gavishthi i.e. search for cows (Hence cows seems to have been most important wealth)

Gifts were made to priests in form of cows & women slaves → Not in form of land

Rig Veda mentions several artisans namely Carpenters, Chariot makers, weavers, Leather workers, Potters etc. along with term Ayas used for copper or Bronze which shows metal working was well known

Aryans or Vedic people mainly relied on land routes as the word samundra mentioned in Rig veda mainly denotes a collection of water
