There was a constant expansion of agriculture during the Mughal period. The abundance of land, availability of labour and the mobility of peasants were three factors that accounted for the constant expansion of agriculture. Rice, wheat and millets were the most frequently cultivated crops. It depends on monsoons, but artificial systems of irrigation were also implemented. The state undertook the digging of new canals and repairs of old canals. though agriculture was labour intensive, farmers used new technologies that harnessed animal power. Wooden plough with iron tip was used since it was light. there was also the use of drill, pulled by a pair of giant oxen to plant seeds, but broadcasting of seeds was widely followed. A wooden blade with a narrow iron blade was used for sowing and weeding.

Archaeologists reconstruct the past by a study of the artefacts which they unearth such as seals, coins, remains of buildings, clay, pots or burnt grains. Archaeologist reconstruct the past in the following ways:
- Archaeologists excavate the ancient sites. They try to find about the life of the people by studying various unearthed artefacts such as remains of houses, pots, jewellery, coins, agricultural tools, weighs etc.
- Zooarchaeologists study the animal bones and try to find out if these animals were domesticated. For example, Animal bones found at Harappan sites include those of cattle, sheep, goat, buffalo and pig. It show us that the Harappans were aware of these animal.
- Archaeologists try to find about the prevalence of agriculture by finding the remains of burnt grains. Some ways by which they try to find about the agricultural practices is by studying seals and terracotta sculptures. For example, representations on seals and terracotta sculpture indicate that the bull was known, and archaeologists extrapolate from this that oxen were used for ploughing.
- Archaeologists also try to find about social or economic differences amongst people in the past by studying burial sites. When graves contain pottery and ornaments, it indicate that people during that time believed in afterlife.
- Archaeologists try to look for raw material such as stone nodules, whole shells, copper ore; tools; unfinished objects; rejects and waste materials to identify the centres of craft production.
- Religious beliefs of the people can be reconstructed based on the study of seals and coins. In the Harappan Civilisation, some seals depicted rituals while some seals had plat motifs on them indicating nature worship.

- Sanchi stupa was discovered in 1818
- When Sanchi stupa was discovered, three of its four gateways remained intact and the fourth was lying on the spot where it had fallen. The mound was also in good condition. Thus, no such harm was done to the unique piece of architecture.

When historians began reconstructing early Indian history in the nineteenth century, the emergence of the Mauryan Empire was regarded as a major landmark. The significance of the Mauryan empire was:
- India was then under colonial rule and was the part of the British empire. Nineteenth and early twentieth-century Indian historians found the possibility that there was an empire in early India both challenging and exciting.
- Some of the archaeological finds associated with the Mauryas, including stone sculpture, were considered to be examples of the spectacular art typical of empires. Many of these historians found the message on Asokan inscriptions very different from that of most other rulers, suggesting that Asoka was more powerful and industrious, as also more humble than later rulers who adopted grandiose titles.
- Nationalist leaders in the twentieth century regarded him as an inspiring figure.
- Ashoka also tried to hold his empire together by propagating dhamma, the principles of which, as we have seen, were simple and virtually universally applicable. This includes respect towards elders, generosity towards Brahmanas and those who renounced world life, treating slaves and servants kindly and respect for religions and traditions other than one's own.
- The Mauryan Empire lasted for about 150 years, which is not a very long time in the vast span of the history of the subcontinent. The empire did not encompass the entire subcontinent. And even within the frontiers of the empire, control was not uniform. By the second century BCE, new chiefdoms and kingdoms emerged in several parts of the subcontinent.
