Answer: C
Potato and maize were not cultivated in India during the Sultanate period, so the codes are 1 and 4, option (C). Both are crops of the Americas that came to the Old World after the voyages of Columbus, and they reached India with the Portuguese and other Europeans in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Barley and sesame were grown in India from ancient times and in the Sultanate period. So (A) and (B), which include barley, and (D), which includes sesame, are wrong.
