  • Introduction
    ONE Introduction THE DYNASTIES Sec. 1 The Qutb Shahs On the break up of the Bahmani Kingdom towards the close of the fifteenth century and the beginning of the sixteenth century there arose in the Deccan five different sultanates. Of these Golconda was one. It was founded by Sultan Quli a member of the Black Sheep (Qara Quyunlu) Tribe 2 During Bahmani rule a number of foreigners from Iran and other places used to migrate to the Decoan which was for them a land of opportunities. Some of the emigrants rose to high position and Sultan Quli by his abilities rose to be the governor (tarafdar) of Tilangana.^ Sultan Quli joined service under Mahmud Shah Bahmani when a conflict between such emigrants (Afaqis) and the native called Deccani people had become deep rooted and hence a decisive factor in power politics of the Deccan. z The Bahmani Sultanate was tottering under the pressure of that conflict. The nobles were maneuvering to break away from the Sultanate and assume autonomy within a jurisdiction under their control. Sultan Quli was no less ambitious and capable of such autonomy than any other noble in the Beccan, Nevertheless he was scrupulous and preferred slow and steady measures to revolution. With a view to maintain his status in the society of states he joined the/^afavi Movement.) That c alliance was essential for the survival of his Sultanate since the other Sultanates of the Deccan like Bijapur and Ahmadnagar 4 had fallen in with the same movement. SULTM QULI Sultan Quli Qu-^b Shah was a disciple of Shah Na'^yimu• ddin 5 Ni'^matullah of Yazd* As the Sufi households of Iran were assuming a Shi'ite character by the close of the fifteenth century Sultan Quli Qutb Shah too adhered to the Shi'ite 6 faith, which subsequently he upheld as a State Religion.

  • A Study of the Local Administration of Adilshahi Sultanate (A.D
    A STUDY OF THE LOCAL ADMlNISTRATION OF ADILSHAHI SULTANATE (A.D. 1489-1686)* By HIROSHI FUKAZAWA Lecturer of Asian Economy I. INTRODUCTION 1. Preliminary Remarks The Adilshahi Sultanate was established in A.D. 1489 by Yusuf Adil Khan with Bijapor as its capital. It was one of the five Sultanates of the Deccan which sprang up after the dissolution of the Bahmanl Sultanate. Until 1686, when it was annexed to the mighty Mughal Empire, it had eight Sultans on its throne, was the most extensive and powerful of the five Deccan Sultanates, and played an important part in the political and cultural history of medieval India,l The purpose of this article is, however, not to discuss the politico-cultural history of this Sultanate, but to analyse the institutions of local administration in its established territory, roughly from the Bhtm~ to the Tungabhadra. Two broad questions have led me to study the subject. First, the studies hitherto attempted on the medieval Deccan during the Muslim period appear to be mainly confined either to the chronological narration of political events or to the cultural history of the court.2 This trend of research may be said to be due to two causes: (1) the source materials so far used have been mostly the court chronicles written * A]though the responsibility for writing this article as welll as for its contents is solely mine, I am nevertheless greatly indebted to the guidance' and instruction given by Prof. G.H. Khare of Bharat Itihas Sanshodhak Mandal, Poona, and wish to express my most sincere gratitude to him.

INTRODUCTION Telangana is one of the 31 states in India, located in the southern India. Telangana has an area of 114,840 square kilometres (44,340 sq mi), and a population of 35,193,978 (2011 census), making it the twelfth largest state in India, and the twelfth most populated state in India. Its major cities include Hyderabad, Warangal, Nizamabad, Khammam and Karimnagar. Telangana is bordered by the states of Maharashtra to the North and North-West, Chhattisgarh to the North, Karnataka to the West, and Andhra Pradesh to the East and South. Telangana acquired its identity as the Telugu speaking region of the princely state of Hyderabad, ruled by the Nizam of Hyderabad, joining the Union of India in 1948. In 1956, the Hyderabad state was dissolved as part of the linguistic reorganisation of states and Telangana was merged with former Andhra State to form Andhra Pradesh, following a movement for separation. Journal of Global Biosciences Vol. 5(9), 2016 pp. 4585-4589 ISSN 2320-1355 HISTORY During its history, Telangana was governed by many rulers, including the Satavahana dynasty (230 BCE to 220 CE), the Kakatiya Dynasty (1083–1323), the Musunuri Nayaks (1326–1356) the Delhi Sultanate, the Bahmani Sultanate (1347–1512), Qutb Shahi dynasty (1512–1687), Mughal Empire (1687–1724) and Asaf Jahi Dynasty (1724–1948) When India became independent from the British Empire in 1947, the Nizam of Hyderabad did not want to merge with the Indian Union and wanted to remain independent.

  • Quṭb Shahi Dynasty in Hyderabad of Telangana State-A Historical Study
    International Journal of Research in Economics and Social Sciences(IJRESS) Available online at: http://euroasiapub.org Vol. 8 Issue 5, May- 2018 ISSN(o): 2249-7382 | Impact Factor: 6.939 | Quṭb shahi Dynasty in Hyderabad of Telangana State-a Historical Study T.RAVINDAR. Research scholar. Department of History.Osmania University Telangana: Hyderabad. Telangana:-500007 Abstract Quṭb Shāhī dynasty, (1518–1687), Muslim rulers of the kingdom of Golconda in the southeastern Deccan of India, one of the five successor states of the Bahmanī kingdom. The founder was Qulī Quṭb Shah, a Turkish governor of the Bahmanī eastern region, which largely coincided with the preceding Hindu state of Warangal. Quṭb Shah declared his independence in 1518 and moved his capital to Golconda. Toward the end of the century, Muḥammad Qulī Quṭb Shah built a new capital at Hyderabad, a few miles away. The kingdom was noted for its gold and diamonds. Its government was a Muslim military aristocracy; Persian influence was strong, and the sultans belonged to the Shīʿīte sect of Islam. Relations of the dynasty with the Hindu Telugus were generally good. Golconda took part in the overthrow of Vijayanagar (1565) and thereafter was mainly concerned with expansion along the coastal Carnatic (Karnakata). In 1687 the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb annexed the kingdom. erritory of Golconda lay between the lower reaches of the Godavari and Krishna rivers and extended to the Bay of Bengal coast. In 1687 the ruling dynasty of Quṭb Shāhī was overthrown by the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb, and Golconda was annexed to the Mughal Empire (1526–1857). The fortress is 3 miles (5 km) in circumference, with concentric masonry block walls.

  • Variations on a Persian Theme: Adaptation and Innovation in Early Manuscripts from Golconda
    Variations on a Persian Theme: Adaptation and Innovation in Early Manuscripts from Golconda Laura Weinstein Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2011 © 2011 Laura Weinstein All rights reserved ABSTRACT Variations on a Persian Theme: Adaptation and Innovation in Early Manuscripts from Golconda Laura Weinstein Scholarship on the earliest known illustrated manuscripts produced in the sultanate of Golconda has tended to describe these objects as the products of the extension of a powerful influence from Iran over this small kingdom in the Deccan. While this assessment rightly acknowledges the importance of Persianate visual traditions in early Golconda manuscripts and paintings, it oversimplifies the nature of these remarkable objects and the context of their production. In addition, it misrepresents the role of the artists involved in the manuscripts’ creation. This dissertation provides a more nuanced consideration of these objects and their making. It offers the first in-depth discussion of six manuscripts produced in Golconda between 1570 and 1610, demonstrating a previously unrecognized sophistication and creativity in the process of their creation. It also presents a newly discovered manuscript, one which significantly alters prevailing understandings of early manuscript painting in the Qutb Shahi sultanate. These studies identify several interrelated modes of engagement with Persianate forms, rather than a single stylistic progression towards local artistic “independence.” In addition, they reveal how these various modes were calibrated towards different goals, sometimes using Persianate forms as a platform from which to explore various ways of constructing and illustrating narrative and poetic texts, while at other times using these forms to make claims of cultural sophistication or for the legitimating of new and local cultural phenomena.
