Answer 1

Explanation:

Medieval India refers to a long period of the history of the Indian subcontinent between the "ancient period" and "modern period".[1] It encompasses the 6th to the 18th centuries A.D.One definition, used in the rest of this article, includes the period from the 6th century,[2] the "first half of the 7th century",[3] or the 8th century[4] up to the 16th century, essentially coinciding with the Middle Ages of Europe. It may be divided into two periods: The 'early medieval period' which lasted from the 6th to the 13th century and the 'late medieval period' which lasted from the 13th to the 16th century, ending with the start of the Mughal Empire in 1526. The Mughal era, from the 16th century to the 18th century, is often referred to as the early modern period,[2] but is sometimes also included in the 'late medieval' period.[5]

An alternative definition, often seen in those more recent authors who still use the term at all, brings the start of the medieval times forward, either to about 1000 CE, or to the 12th century.[6] The end may be pushed back to the 18th century, making the period in effect that between the start of Muslim domination (at least in northern India) and British India. Or the "early medieval" period as beginning in the 8th century, and ending with the 11th century.
