This book, Money, Wealth, and Inequality — Book I: Economic History of
Ancient India, was written with a single purpose: to understand how the
economic foundations of early Indian civilization shaped the structures of wealth,
inequality, technology, and social organization that continue to influence the
subcontinent today.
For centuries, discussions of ancient India have been dominated by mythology,
incomplete interpretations, or narratives that obscure the material realities of
life. This work attempts to bridge that gap by placing archaeological evidence,
economic logic, and historical continuity at the center of analysis. The story of
ancient India is not a tale of static perfection, but one of continuous innovation
—from the chipped stones of the Paleolithic period to the polished craftsmen of
the Neolithic, from the metallurgists of the Copper Age to the urban planners
of the Indus Valley, and from the pastoral economy of the Rig Vedic age to the
agrarian transformations of the Brahmana period.
This book is the first in a multi-volume series exploring how economic systems
—tools, technology, trade, property, money, and institutions — evolved over
thousands of years and shaped human experience. The aim is not merely to list
historical facts but to reconstruct how people lived, worked, produced, traded,
governed, and imagined their world.
