    Nidān, Volume 4, No. 1, July 2019, pp. 1-18 ISSN 2414-8636 The Cantonment Town of Aurangabad: Contextualizing Christian Missionary Activities in the Nineteenth Century Bina Sengar Assistant Professor, Department of History and Ancient Indian Culture School of Social Sciences Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, [email protected] Abstract The cantonment town of Aurangabad has a legacy of being soldier’s territory since the inception of the city of Aurangabad or Khadki/Fatehnagar in the late 13th century (Ramzaan, 1983, Green, 2009). The city’s settlement pattern evolved as per the requirements of cantonment, planned during the Nizamshahi and later, during the Mughal rule in the city. In fact, Aurangabad evolved as a cantonment city even before the British. As we study the city’s networks and its community history, we come across a civic society web, which gathered and settled gradually as service providers or as dependent social groups on the resident military force. In the late eighteenth century when the British allied with the Nizam state of Hyderabad, they were given special place in the Aurangabad cantonment to develop a military base. The British military base in the early decades of the nineteenth century in Aurangabad, thus, worked intensively to cope with the already well-established community connection of a strategic defence town. This research paper will explore and discuss relationships between British soldiers and officers and the well-established societal web of communities living in Aurangabad from early decades of nineteenth century, before the 1857 revolt. Keywords: Aurangabad, British, Cantonment, Defence, English Introduction During July 2018, army cantonments in India constituted the news headlines, and soon entered coffee table discussions among heritage lovers.

This Unit would introduce you to: 9 the policy pursued by different Mughal Emperors towards the Deccan states; 9 the factors that determined the Deccan policy of the Mughals, and the ultimate outcome of the struggle between the Mughals and the Deccan states. - 9.1 INTRODUCTION - In Unit 8 of this Block you have learnt how the independent Sultanates of Ahmednagar, Bijapur, Golkonda, Berar and Bidar had been established in the Deccan. We have already discussed the development of these states and their relations to each other (Unit 8). Here our focus would be on the Mughal relations with the Deccan states. The Deccan policy of the Mughals was not determined by any single factor. The strategic importance of the Decen states and the administrative and economic necessity of the Mughal empire largely guided the attitude of the Mughal rulers towards the Deccan states. Babar, the first Mughal ruler, could not establish any contact with Deccan because of his pre-occupations in the North. Still, his conquest of Chanderi in 1528 had brought the Mugllal empire close to the northern cbnfines of Malwa.

  • Malik Ambar.Docx
    Malik Ambar Malik Ambar was a prime minister and general of African descent who served the Ahmadnagar Sultanate. He is regarded as a pioneer in guerilla warfare in the region along with being credited for carrying out a revenue settlement of much of the Deccan, which formed the basis for subsequent settlements. This article will give details about Malik Ambar within the context of the IAS Exam Early Life of Malik Ambar The man who would become Malik Ambar was born in 1548 in central Ethiopia. His birth name was Chapu. His people, the Oromo were relative newcomers in the region taking advantage of an ongoing war in the region to migrate. His childhood was typical of the Oromo people at the time - pastoralist and peaceful. 16the century Ethiopia was defined by slavery. While it impacted all communities, Solomonic Christian Kingdom and the Muslim Adal Sultanate targeted the largely spiritualist Oromo people when i came to slavery. By 1555 over 12,000 slaves per year were captured and sold in Ethiopia. Their destinations ranged from Cairo to the heart of Persia. Sure enough, at 12 years old Chapu was captured by Arabic traders, becoming a statistic in an epidemic slave trade that spread through the regions sorrounding the Indian Ocean. The young boy was put up in an auction in a slave market in a port on the coast of Yemen. Chapu was eventually sold to a merchant named Mir Qasim who took him to Baghdad. There, Qasim gave his slave an Arabic name - Ambar. He also taught him how to read, write and manage the finances of his masters business.

It takes as its starting point Michael Pearson’s concept of ports as ‘gateways’ and ‘hubs’ and tries to examine the multiple networks of trade that were centred in this port. In 2003, Michael Pearson had argued that it was time for a shift in perspective, to “look from the sea to the land, and most obviously to the coast.”1 While going along the coasts of the ‘expansive’ Indian Ocean, there were a number of choke points, at which, he said, port cities were usually found.

  • Examining Slavery in the Medieval Deccan and in the Indian
    TCNJ JOURNAL OF STUDENT SCHOLARSHIP VOLUME XIV APRIL 2012 FROM AFRICAN SLAVE TO DECCANI MILITARY AND POLITICAL LEADER: EXAMINING MALIK AMBAR’S LIFE AND LEGACY Author: Riksum Kazi Faculty Sponsor: Adam Knobler, Department of History ABSTRACT This paper examines the career of Malik Ambar (1549-1646). Originally an African slave soldier, he gained power in the regional politics of medieval India. Study of his life illustrates the dynamics, complexity, and politics of military slavery in the Deccan and India. INTRODUCTION Although fewer Africans were transported to the Indian subcontinent than to the Americas, they played a significant role in Indian history.1 Malik Ambar gained control of a sizable Deccani sultanate and transcended the traditional role of slave by resisting the Mughal Empire‘s armies and maintaining the socio- economic structure of the Deccan. Despite his accomplishments, Ambar he has been forgotten by historians for a variety of political, religious, and ethnic reasons. A note on terminology: in this paper, the word slave, unless otherwise indicated, connotes people of African heritage in involuntary servitude. The term Habshi refers to African slaves from the hinterlands of Ethiopia and the Sudan.2 THE DECCAN: GEOGRAPHIC BACKGROUND The Deccan, the principal geological region of Central India, is divided into five major areas: the Western Ghats, comprised of the Sahyadri range and coastal region near those mountains; the Northern Deccan plateau; the Southern Deccan plateau; the Eastern plateau; and the Eastern Ghats, including the Bengali coastal region. Its landscapes and climates vary from cold mountains to warm coastal plains.3 Moreover, the region was populated by speakers of Sanskrit, Tamil, Gujarati, Marathi, Persian, and Urdu and practicers of Hinduism and Islam.

  • Identifying and Empowering Afrodescendants in South Asia And
    Identifying and Empowering Afrodescendants in South Asia and the Gulf by Dr Shihan de Silva Jayasuriya, FRAS Institute of Commonwealth Studies, School of Advanced Study University of London Mister Chairman, distinguished participants, it is an honour to have been asked to speak about Afrodescendants at this important conference. My interest in the African diaspora began when I came across a community of Afro-Sri Lankans almost 20 years ago, during fieldwork for my doctoral research on Sri Lanka Portuguese, a creolised Portuguese, an important lingua franca in the island for 350 years until English took over this role (de Silva Jayasuriya 2003; de Silva Jayasuriya 2008). Speaking Portuguese pulled Afro-Sri Lankans apart from other villagers and connected them to the colonial regime which ended in 1948 (de Silva Jayasuriya 2006). As people in-between the colonisers and colonised, their fate changed with the political dynamics that followed stability and then independence. I was privileged to have met Sir Rex Nettleford, Chair of the UNESCO Slave Route Project, when I served as a member of the Scientific Committee of the Slave Route Project, 1 and then as its Rapporteur. Over lunch, in Paris, Sir Rex said to me: “We know what happened on the Atlantic but I would love to know what happened on the east side of Africa”. Ladies and Gentlemen, Why are African migrants in the Indian Ocean World invisible? (de Silva Jayasuriya & Pankhurst, R 2003). It’s a long story and I’m going to make a start. I am going to speak about: I Identifying and II Empowering Afrodescendants and then I’ll make a few III Recommendations I.

No further reproduction is authorized without written permission from Media & Communications Center. This version of the document is not the version of record. Article: Among the tens of thousands of men, women, and children captured in Africa and sold into slavery in the Middle East and India was an Ethiopian of fierce determination: Malik Ambar. Born Chapu in 1548 in Harar, where the Ethiopian highlands meet the dessert stretching to the Red Sea, Ambar (as he was later called) was stripped of his family, his name, and forever taken from his homeland. Nevertheless, half a century later, and halfway around the world, he had transformed himself into a king-maker in India’s Deccan, leading the most powerful military force against Mughal rule. Traveling first by caravan, and then by dhow, the young Ambar was taken across the Red Sea to the port of Mocha in southern Arabia (Yemen). He was re-sold ad sent top Baghadad, where he was educated before finally being sent to India to serve Chengiz Khan, the Regent Minister of the Sultan of Nizam Shai in Ahmadnagar. For twenty years, the Ethiopian, now a Muslim, Loyally served Khan, an Ethiopian like himself who convert to Islam, but unlike Ambar, was no longer enslaved.
