By 5500, the people of Mehrgarh had begun to rely more on bovine and ovicaprine pastoralism for their meat, as opposed to hunting. Starting from around this time, there is also an increase in the number of known farming settlements in the region, most notably Kili Ghul Mohammad, Anjira, Siah Damb, and Rana Gundai. There is evidence for an increased range of craft activities and the first granaries appeared in Mehrgarh, as well as, perhaps, small-scale irrigation. §REF§ (McIntosh 2008, 57-61) McIntosh, Jane. 2008.

It is also unclear, again from the literature consulted, whether Aurangzeb's successors continued any of his policies in these matters, but it seems reasonable to assume some degree of continuity. \"In 1672 Aurangzeb issued an order recalling all endowed lands given to Hindus and reserving all such future land grants for Muslims, possibly as a concession to the ulama. If strictly enforced, this move would have been a significant blow to Hindu and Jain religious communities, but historical evidence suggests otherwise. \"The new policy on land grants lacked implementation, especially in more far-flung areas of the kingdom. In parts of Bengal, for instance, Mughal officers gave more endowed land to Hindus after the 1672 order than before.\" §REF§(Truschke 2017: 82) Seshat URL:  <a href=\"https://www.zotero.org/groups/1051264/seshat_databank/items/MQAWGCQB\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"fw-bolder\"> <b> Zotero link: MQAWGCQB </b></a>§REF§",

Here, we are interested in the phase of its prehistory known as the Neolithic (c. 7000-3001 BCE). Larger sites found in the wider Gangetic region dating from this time have yielded evidence for agricultural activities, including animal husbandry; moreover, one site (Chirand) has also yielded evidence for large-scale production of tools made of bone and antler, as well as of items of likely domestic use, indicating some degree of craft specialisation. The political organisation of such sites remain overall unclear, though one site in a neighbouring valley, Magahara, seems to have housed a relatively egalitarian community, judging from the similarity between houses and their arrangement around a likely cattle pen, suggesting communal ownership of livestock. No population estimates could be found for the Middle Ganga specifically, but the typical community in the nearby Vindhya region would likely have numbered around 200 people, and the region as a whole likely had a population of about 1,000. §REF§ (Vikrama and Chattopadhyaya 2002: 127-132) Seshat URL: <a class=\"external free\" href=\"https://www.zotero.org/groups/1051264/seshat_databank/items/U4F7KRKD/\" rel=\"nofollow\">https://www.zotero.org/groups/1051264/seshat_databank/items/U4F7KRKD/</a>. §REF§ ",

In the power vacuum, the Nizam of Hyderabad stepped in and placed his own man on the throne of Arcot. The new Walajah dynasty was in power (at least nominally) from 1744 to 1855. Unlike the Navaiyats, however, the Walajahs also endowed Hindu temples and shrines. The need to maintain a military superiority and the need to establish princely authority by acts of religious patronage coincided in the magnificent endowments lavished on the fortresses and temples of Trichinopoly. The control with temple centres was not only necessary in order to establish princely authority but also because the temples were centres of trade and important sources of revenue for the rulers.” §REF§ (Bugge, 2020) Bugge, Henriette. 2020.

However they did not reformulated the Hindu laws and customs but rather attempted to preserve the tradition as such. In the words of T.V. Mahalingam,  ‘The Nawabs of the Carnatic (the members of the Walajah dynasty of Arcot), particularly Muhammad Ali Walajah and his successor Umdata’I Umara, were deeply interested in the proper maintenance of the Hindu temples. They were anxious that no harm was done to them in the course of the many wars that were waged in the Carnatic during their period. More than that, they were equally anxious that the traditional and customary modes of worship there were followed without any interruption. They considered it their duty to settle disputes, if any, that arose among groups or parties with regard to the performance of temple ritual and worship.” §REF§ (Venkataramanujam 2015, 256-257) Venkataramanujam, R. 2015. ‘Temple Administration in Tamilnadu: A Colonia Legacy.’ In Facets of Contemporary History.

Although the dynasty itself was founded in 1511 CE, we date the beginning of the polity to 1554, when the Saadis took Fez from their dynastic rivals, the Wattasids, and united Morocco under their rule. As for the polity's end, it seems most appropriate to date it to 1659, the year the last Saadi monarch was assassinated. Between 1554 and 1591, the boundaries of the Saadi Sultanate coincided with those of modern-day Morocco. Between 1591 and 1618, the Saadi also ruled over the Niger Inland Delta, though their control over this area seems to have been nominal. After the death of Sultan Ahmad Al-Mansur in 1603, the polity entered a period of instability that ultimately led to the loss of their Niger colony. §REF§ (El Fasi 1992, 200-32) M. El Fasi. 1992.

Then came the sultan's council, headed by the First Secretary, who fulfilled the roles of secretary of state, majordomo and treasurer. The vice-vizier was in charge of the army and the <i>qadi al-qudat</i> (chief religious judge) headed the judiciary and appointed regional qadis.<br>The Saadi Sultanate is likely to have had a population of no more than 3 million at its peak. This is based on the earliest available population estimate for Morocco, which dates to the 20th century. According to García-Arenal, '[t]he figure can hardly have been higher in the late sixteenth century or during the seventeenth, given that the country was subject to regular and devastating epidemics of plague'. §REF§ (García-Arenal 2009, 41) Mercedes García-Arenal. 2009. <i>Ahmad Al-Mansur: The Beginnings of Modern Morocco</i>.

It is also unclear, again from the literature consulted, whether Aurangzeb's successors continued any of his policies in these matters, but it seems reasonable to assume some degree of continuity. \"In 1672 Aurangzeb issued an order recalling all endowed lands given to Hindus and reserving all such future land grants for Muslims, possibly as a concession to the ulama. If strictly enforced, this move would have been a significant blow to Hindu and Jain religious communities, but historical evidence suggests otherwise. \"The new policy on land grants lacked implementation, especially in more far-flung areas of the kingdom.

Here, we are interested in the phase of its prehistory known as the Neolithic (c. 7000-3001 BCE). Larger sites found in the wider Gangetic region dating from this time have yielded evidence for agricultural activities, including animal husbandry; moreover, one site (Chirand) has also yielded evidence for large-scale production of tools made of bone and antler, as well as of items of likely domestic use, indicating some degree of craft specialisation. The political organisation of such sites remain overall unclear, though one site in a neighbouring valley, Magahara, seems to have housed a relatively egalitarian community, judging from the similarity between houses and their arrangement around a likely cattle pen, suggesting communal ownership of livestock. No population estimates could be found for the Middle Ganga specifically, but the typical community in the nearby Vindhya region would likely have numbered around 200 people, and the region as a whole likely had a population of about 1,000. §REF§ (Vikrama and Chattopadhyaya 2002: 127-132) Seshat URL: <a class=\"external free\" href=\"https://www.zotero.org/groups/1051264/seshat_databank/items/U4F7KRKD/\" rel=\"nofollow\">https://www.zotero.org/groups/1051264/seshat_databank/items/U4F7KRKD/</a>. §REF§ ",

The legal implications of fengshui, which was often invoked in property disputes across China, explain the reason. Ethnographic accounts reveal that non-Muslim populations in the northwest at times attacked Islamic shrines on the suspicion that they hurt the fengshui of an area. The Muslim community of Baoning may have been preempting such accusations through their engagement with Chinese cosmology. Fengshui provided a vehicle through which this Muslim community exerted a claim to land that addressed the sympathies of a wider, non-Muslim community, which saw the mountain as connected to the fortunes of the entire prefecture through the examination system and rain-making. Some locals may have been initially troubled at the prospect of the historically Daoist mountain coming under Muslim ownership. And yet, it was precisely this strategy in real estate acquisition that appears to have been essential to the Qādirīyah’s and other Sufi networks’ successes in the northwest. Existing accounting re- cords of these shrines dating from the eighteenth century through the 1940s reveal extensive landholdings near Daoist abbeys, Tibetan monasteries, and Buddhist temples.” §REF§ (Brown 2019,460) Brown, Tristan G. 2019. ‘A Mountain of Saints and Sages: Muslims in the Landscape of Popular Religion in Late Imperial China.’ T'Oung Pao.

After a failed uprising against the Sunni Abbasids in Syria, the head of the Ismaili Shi'a religious movement - who claimed descent from Muhammad's daughter Fatimah by way of her descendent Ismail - fled to Tunisia. There, with the help of local Berber warriors, he 'seized Ifriqiya - modern Tunisia and Eastern Algeria - took over the trans-Saharan gold-and-slave trade, built two great capitals - first Kairouan, then nearby Mahdiyya - and set up an autonomous state far from the reach of Baghdad'. §REF§ (Man 1999, 74) John Man. 1999. <i>Atlas of the Year 1000</i>. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press. §REF§  From there, the Fatimids conquered much of North Africa, extending their rule into Egypt. The effective end of the Fatimid Caliphate occurred at the end of the 11th century (though the Caliphate remained nominally intact for nearly another century). At this time, a series of Fatimid viziers increased their control of the military and, ruling from their own palaces, turned the imam-caliph into a nominal figurehead. §REF§ (Walker 2006, 88) Paul E.

[...] Although, as we saw, confiscated estates legally belonged to the king, they were de facto administered and usufructed by the Inquisitors. [...] Subject to confiscation was not only property which the accused had at the time of his arrest but all he possessed from the date on which he began practicing heresy (which could be decades before the arrest). [...] The product of confiscation must have run into dizzy figures. Of the some 18,000 people put on trial by the Inquisition at Lisbon between 1540 and 1760, the great majority were bourgeois. The intense persecution of New Christians that took place between 1660 and 1685 (even though the Inquisition lay dormant from 1674-1682) netted 2,402 victims in Évora (55 executed), 1,621 in Coimbra (77 executed) and 871 in Lisbon (18 executed), a grand total of 4,894 victims (150 executed).
