GIPE-248676-Contents.Pdf (2.661Mb) APPENDIX (I) A. SHORT NOTE ON THE PHOTOGRAPHS INSERTED IN THE Boox. No. 1. Shivaji's Seals and Coins: is a plain design including two seals, one gold coin and seven copper pieces ascribed to Shivaji., No.1 Is the principal seal used long before his corona• cion, from his very childhood and continued even after that Kignificant ceremony. The inscription, thus, is devoid of any royal insignia. Dignified in its plain majesty, the couplet, freely' rendered, reads-'This seal of Shiva, the son of Shiha. waxing ( daily ) like the crescent of the moon and adored by the universe, 11hines with benevolent splendour'. No.2 Is the closing seal and reads 'here', the limit.' No.3 Represents the obverse and reverse of a gold 'Mohur' of Shiv~ji, and bears the usual legend 'Shri RajJ. Shiva' on one aide and 'Chhatrapati' on the other. N 01. ' to 8 are the usual copper pieces called 'Shivarli.' with similar legends imprinted. No.5 bears the whole legend in full. Others carry it only partially, Nos • .& and 8 showing op.ly one letter e&ch. No. ' including nothing of regal significance ie considered to h&ve been struck before the Coronation. Nos. 9 & 10 &;e tokens of lighter weight and were known w a Ruka and Dam respectively. No. :a A Page from the Factory Record.-Thi• is inserted to ,i.,e ihe readers some idea of the nature of the or1ine.l mit.teri&l r 353 Appendix from which the extracts are made. Caref'qlly studied, the photo. graph affords a considerable knowledge of the spelling, caligraphy and similar other things in which a student ls interested. No. 3 Ray Gad. This is the only photograph so far available of the majesty that is Ray Gad. It represents only the northern front of the impregnable fortress,the top exetnding over a considar­ a.ble plateau, ''behind it. It gives some idea of the great fort, upon which so much praise ·bas been bestowed by all the visitors without exception. N~· 4 The Memorial Chhatri of Shivajt.T~is is again a pl&in memorial raised to the rev:erad memory of the great national here. A. beautiful superstructure ha3 only lately been raised over this plinth. Shivaji passed away on Ray Gad. ~p~~ (II) 1\ note on the English Reeords on ShlvaJi, ... THE METHOD ADOPTED IN MAKING .TBE EX:T~ACTS. This is what Miss. L. M. Anstey, hss to say about what aho ea.l111, the Shivaji Collection :-- · The extracts forming this collectipn have been COIIied from the Mss. in the India. Office verbatim, excepting that (1) Contractions have been written out in lull. (2) Unnecessary capital letters have been disreg&rded. (3) Punctuation 'marks have been added. where absolutely necessary for the sense or disregarded in the originals where they serve to confuse the text. - No other alterations have been made and the spelling, how­ ever inconsistent, together with •• then " for " than " etc. has been retained. · The section copied from Orme Mss. Vol. lU was that selected for the foundation of the series· and was the first to be copie'd, This volume was compiled by Orme from extracts taken fiorn Factory Records, Bombay, regarding Shivaji, the Sidi. etc. The Bombay Records were subsequently examined and any notable omissions supplied from the originals. The Contents· of Vol. lU. given in Mr. Hill's Catalogue are- PP~ 1-369. Bombay Letters to Factories· from Nov. %4th 1671 to De<>. 18th 1678. Copied extracts from official letters. pp. 3'11-18Q. Appendix to the same, oonl!listing of a letter dated 9th May 1674. to the "Siddee Sambole,'" thAI Mughal"s Admiral, regarding his" wish to "win· ter in the Island of Bombar, and ( pp. 377-38g) a letter dated Bombay, 11th May 1674., to Mr. Henry Oxenden giving him instructions u te the treaty to be made with " Sevaji" TO' the best of my belief_ every reference both in J.l'aotofT Reoorda, Original Correspondence (and the Orme Mas.) baa bettft ntneted regarding Shivaji. Sd. L. M • .A.NBTitT (.!.» l>r. Sen'• remarks may also be subjoined here:- " The Factory ~cords are usually written in very good hand •nd are in fairly good state of preserntion; but it does not appear that the scribes of those days were very particular about their 1pelling of English words and transliteration of Indian place and personal names. Thus you will often find the same English words differently speh in different places, and the name of Shivaji trans· merated in half a. dozen different ways; at one place, it is writteu M • Savage. • Then certain common forms of abbreviation were frequently used e. g. woh for which, y• for this, y• for that, wt for what, lnoa for in circa, Gove! for Governor or as it was then written Gouvernor, and so on." •• ............ It is necessary to add a few words about the method ue~ually adopted while referring to the Factory Records. Tb~ ... date-will supply a surer means of locating the extracts than the page or folio number, as each copyist seems to have numbered his own pages according to his own convenience. To avoid confusion the number of the particular part of a volume is sometimes given. But it should be noted that in the original volumes, the different pane have not been !'eparately· numbered." GENERAL INDEX. Both volumes are index:ed together. The Roman figures indicate th~ \'ol ume, the Arabic the ~erial number of extracts. .References under partie· ular headings are am~uged serially instead of &lphabetica.lly. Tlle chrpno· lugiu1l order adopted in the primary arrangement would thus naturall.r .W.velop a chronological sequence in the Index.

BY SURENDRANATH SEN, M.A., Premchaxd Roychand Student, Lectcrer in MarItha History, Calcutta University, Ordinary Fellow, Indian Women's University, Poona. Formerly Professor of History and English Literature, Robertson College, Jubbulpore. Published by thz UNIVERSITY OF CALCUTTA 1920 PRINTED BY ATCLCHANDKA BHATTACHABYYA, AT THE CALCUTTA UNIVEB8ITY PEE 88, SENATE HOUSE, CALCUTTA " WW**, #rf?fW rT, SIWiMfT, ^R^fa srre ^rtfsre wwf* Ti^vtm PREFACE The present volume is the first of a series intended for those students of Maratha history who do not know Marathi. Original materials, both published and unpublished, have been accumulating for the last sixtv years and their volume often frightens the average student. Sir Asutosh Mookerjee, therefore, suggested that a selection in a handy form should be made where all the useful documents should be in- cluded. I must confess that no historical document has found a place in the present volume, but I felt that the chronicles or bakhars could not be excluded from the present series and I began with Sabhasad bakhar leaving the documents for a subsequent volume. This is by no means the first English rendering of Sabhasad. Jagannath Lakshman Mankar translated Sabhasad more than thirty years ago from a single manuscript. The late Dr. Vincent A. Smith over- estimated the value of Mankar's work mainly because he did not know its exact nature. A glance at the catalogue of Marathi manuscripts in the British Museum might have convinced him that the original Marathi Chronicle from which Mankar translated has not been lost.

The Maratha scholars and historians had worked hard to construct the history of the land and people of Maharashtra. Among such scholars people like Kashinath Sane, Rajwade, Khare and Parasnis were well known luminaries in this field of history writing of Maratha. Kashinath Sane published a mass of original material like Bakhars, Sanads, letters and other state papers in his journal Kavyetihas Samgraha for more eleven years during the nineteenth century. There is much more them contribution of the Bharat Itihas Sanshodhan Mandal, Pune to this regard.

  • Shivaji - Founder of Indian Navy
    1 SHIVAJI - FOUNDER OF INDIAN NAVY Jai Hind, this is CDT. Atharva Ghag 01 Maha Naval Unit Jai Hind Detachment, Regimental No: 1MAH/SD/20/N/714032. ANCIENT HISTORY OF INDIA’S NAVAL WARFARE: India’s maritime activities traces back to Vedic ages where we could find ancient trade routes connecting middle-east as well as Europe. Later during Chola period mid-9th centaury C.E, where we could find Naval warfare used to rule the east and south seas. Raja Rajendra Chola is even mentioned as “त्रिसमुद्रे�वर” Due to his Naval dominance over three seas. But after the invasion of Mlechchhas we can see the decline of Maritime participation of India in later 13th centaury. Until the Rise of Maratha Empire in later 1600s, under the Great and foresight leadership of Shri. Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. His visionary thinking led Bharat to what today’s Indian Navy; strong, silent and swift. SWARAJYA AND IMPORTANCE OF NAVY: With the vison of Independence from foreign invaders and establishing “वरा煍य” ، he started dominating Kokan coast and with his novel idea of वरा煍य might naturally have a thought of navy when his expanding kingdom came in contact with power bordering the sea. He quoted 2 “煍याचा दयाा 配याचे वैभव, 煍याचे आरमार 配याचा समुद्र” (wealth lies within oceans, one with strong navy rules the seas). The incentive to the Navy was political rather than economic. In the beginning the Kokan coast was infested with the English, Portuguese and the Dutchs, also the Siddhi of Janjira was very powerful and a sworn enemy of Maratha.

ABSTRACT The triangular Hill Fort Shivneri had been used by Yadvas of Ancient Devagiri Kingdom as guard / check post and old trading route from Desh ( interior country ) to the Arabian Sea Port City of Kalyan . The Junnar city was an important trade centre in the 1st century AD during Satvahana Kingdom reign in the region. The military fortification was made by the Maratha Cheifs in 17th century (1630 AD) . The great Hindu Maratha worrier Chhattrapati Shivaji was born at the Fort on 19th February 1630 AD and his name was dedicated to GodessShivai Devi of fort. The rigid and highly stable grounds of Shivneri Hill provide the intact super structure of ShivneriFort . The horizontal flat topped plateaue table lands are rigid and compact in nature, belonging to the trappean basaltic rocks of Cretaceaous ages. The fort was under possession of Maratha Chief (Bhonsale) from 1595 AD till the Anglo – Maratha war of 1820 AD .
