Description

Explore how medieval states in the Bay of Bengal region managed complex monetary systems beyond traditional coinage. This scholarly work challenges the assumption that non-coinage economies were under-monetized, revealing instead how moneys of account and alternative payment methods functioned alongside or replaced physical coins. The book addresses a critical gap in monetary history: whilst coins survive as physical evidence, intangible forms of money leave little historical trace, making their study difficult yet essential. Published by Routledge, this work reexamines pre-modern economic structures, demonstrating that medieval societies employed sophisticated financial mechanisms that historians have only recently begun to understand and appreciate fully.
