The Ganges Valley was the principal trade area from which branched off trade routes leading to many parts of the country. The main trade centres in that area were Bṛhukkaccha (Barygaz) in the west, Patiālā in the Indus delta, Puṣkalavatī in the North-West and Tāmralipti (modern Tamluk) in the east. In Eastern India, Varanasi, Kauśāmbī and Pāṭaliputra and Ujjain were well known for their high quality wares.
