Which of the following was known as an organisation of merchants in the inscriptions of the Pallavas?

Nagaram

The correct answer is Option 1- Nagaram

The organization of merchants in the inscriptions of the Pallavas was known as the Nagaram.

The Pallavas were a dynasty that ruled over parts of South India from the 3rd to the 9th centuries CE. Their inscriptions provide insights into their society, governance, and economic activities.

The Nagaram is mentioned in several Pallava inscriptions. It is described as a self-governing body of merchants that was responsible for regulating trade and protecting the interests of its members. The Nagaram also played an important role in the collection of taxes and the maintenance of public works.

The other three terms, Sangathana, Ur, and Sabha, also appear in Pallava inscriptions, but they refer to different things. Sangathana is a general term for an association or organization. Ur refers to a village assembly. Sabha refers to a council of learned people.
