The Hindu epic Mahabharata mentions the term 'Lakshagriha' or 'Laksha mansion', which was the royal palace of the Kuru king, Duryodhana. This palace was so named due to its vastness, with 'Laksha' meaning 'hundred thousand'.
circa 4th century BCE
The ancient Indian text, Arthashastra by Chanakya, refers to 'Laksha' as a large quantity of gold, equivalent to one hundred thousand pieces. This shows the significance of gold as a measure of wealth during that period.
