The Vedic period (6th century B.C. to 3rd century B.C.) is known as the period of second urbanization.
It is named so because, the widespread use of iron tools and weapons helped the formation large of territorial states. The towns became good markets and both artisans and merchants were organized into guilds under their respective headmen. The chief articles of trade were silk, embroidery, ivory, jewelry, and gold. The cities began to use coins made of metals for the first time.
