    © 2020 JETIR April 2020, Volume 7, Issue 4 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Ports, Port-Towns and Maritime Trade of Odisha during the Nineteenth Century Mrs. Sunita Panigrahy Research Scholar Department of History, Panjab University, Sector-14, Chandigarh, India. Abstract: Odisha being situated on the coast of Bay of Bengal, through the ages has played a significant role in the maritime history of India. During the ancient period, it had extensive maritime trade contacts with many foreign countries such as Africa, Sri Lanka, China, Burma, Thailand, Cambodia, Java, Sumatra, Bali, Borneo etc. Kalidas in his work Raghuvamsha has described the king of Odisha as Mahodadhipati (the Lord of the Sea). The rituals and festivals like Khudurukuni Osha, Kartika Purnima Boita Bandana Utsava, etc., which are being celebrated in modern Odisha are the reminiscent of its past maritime glory. The representation of a giraffe on the Sun temple at Konarka (c.13th century CE) refers to the trade contact of early medieval Odisha with Africa. Like ancient period, maritime activities also constitute a significant chapter of colonial Odisha. The conducive geographical location of Odihsa and its opulence, which had plentiful raw materials deeply attracted the Europeans like the Portuguese, the Dutch, the English and the French to establish their settlements along the coast of Odisha. In the present paper, an endeavour has been made to trace out and analyze the maritime activities, ports and port towns of Odisha during the nineteenth century. Index Terms - Odisha, Europeans, English East India Company, Ports, routes and commodities. I. INTRODUCTION Orissa being situated on the coast of Bay of Bengal, through the ages has played a significant role in the maritime history of India.

  • Odisha District Gazetteers Baleshwar
    ODISHA DISTRICT GAZETTEERS BALESHWAR GOPABANDHU ACADEMY OF ADMINISTRATION [GAZETTEERS UNIT] GENERAL ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT GOVERNMENT OF ODISHA i ODISHA DISTRICT GAZETTEERS BALESHWAR DR. TARADATT, IAS CHIEF EDITOR, GAZETTEERS & DIRECTOR GENERAL, TRAINING COORDINATION GOPABANDHU ACADEMY OF ADMINISTRATION [GAZETTEERS UNIT] GENERAL ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT GOVERNMENT OF ODISHA ii iii iv PREFACE The Gazetteer is an authoritative document that describes a District in all its hues– the economy, society, political and administrative setup, its history, geography, climate and natural phenomena, biodiversity and natural resource endowments. It highlights key developments over time in all such facets, whilst serving as a placeholder for the timelessness of its unique culture and ethos. It permits viewing a District beyond the prismatic image of a geographical or administrative unit, since the Gazetteer holistically captures its socio-cultural diversity, traditions, and practices, the creative contributions and industriousness of its peoples and luminaries, and builds on the economic, commercial and social interplay with the rest of the State and the country at large. The document which is a centrepiece of the District is developed and brought out by the State administration with the cooperation and contributions of all concerned. Its purpose is to generate awareness, public consciousness, spirit of cooperation, pride in contribution to the development of a District, and to serve multifarious interests and address concerns of the people of a District and others in any way concerned. Historically, the ―Imperial Gazetteers‖ were prepared by Colonial administrators for the six Districts of the then Odisha, namely, Angul, Baleshwar, Cuttack, Koraput, Puri, and Sambalpur. After Independence, the Scheme for compilation of District Gazetteers devolved from the Central Sector to the State Sector in 1957.
