At the same time it is safe to infer that land must have been of considerable value when grants of it were recorded by engravings on copper, and also that a community among which the art of engraving on metal existed, and was apparently not uncommon (for the inscriptions are not only numerous but lengthy), must have attained a considerable degree of civilization. It may also be remarked that all these grants refer to those parts of the Konkan which are still the most valuable, as well as the most naturally fertile, Sálsette and the villages on the coast and on the great creeks. - [Previous: c7.s5.133](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5.133) - [Next: c7.s5.135](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5.135) - [Up: c7.s5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5.134](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5.134) · Pramāṇa
