Trade during Aryan Times

Barter was the common practice in trade, the cow being the unit of value in large scale transactions, which limited the geographical reach of a particular trader. The nishka is also mentioned as a measure of value. Later it came to be known by the name of Gold coin, but at this stage it may have been merely a measure of gold.
