Aanvullende informatie

Singhana Deva II ruled the Yadava kingdom of Devagiri at its territorial peak, pushing borders into Malwa, Gujarat, and deep into the Deccan. His reign is notable partly for the court it supported — the Marathi poet-saint Dnyaneshwar was writing within a generation of his rule, and Singhana himself patronized Sanskrit scholarship heavily enough that later sources identify his court as a center of intellectual production rivaling anything in contemporary northern India.

The gadyana weight standard traces back through earlier Deccan practice, with the padmatanka designation referring to the lotus-marked type. Dies for this series show considerable variation across the reign's near five decades.
