Bangalore: Map of MG Road and its Surrounding

Hi, during my recent visit to Bangalore I had got an opportunity to participate in Bangalore Walk. Rupa Pai (wife of Aurn Pai, the initiator of Bangalore Walk) was our host. I was given this wonderful pictorial map showing the area around MG Road along with brief writings on Bangalore's history. I was wondering if we could ask three questions on this map in class 8.

I have written about Bangalore and walk experience in my other blog 'History Speaks'. The link is http://indiahistoryspeaks.blogspot.com/2007/12/global-bangalore-in-history-trail-in-mg.html

My ideas:

Question 1. Following are brief informations about different periods of Bangalore history.

11th cent AD: An old woman shares her meals of boilded beans with a king who was lost here. He named the place Bendekaalooru or bean town, which became Bangalooru and later anglicised Bangalore.

1500-1700 AD: Kempegodwa, a local king, sees a hare chasing a hound, decides this is heroic ground. Builds a mud fort, and his grand son KGII, lays the foundation of a city (pete).

Late 1800: Bangalore is a key military base in the British Empire, and an economic zone.

Post 1947: Most British left, several Anglo Indians remained. The capital of Mysore state is shifted to Bangalore.

The map highlights which of the above historical periods?

The answer would be late 18oos.

Question 2: According to the map this part of Bangalore was essentially a/an

A. religious town. B. military establishment. C. industrial centre and D. polical centre.

The answer would be B.

Question 3: It can be some thing related to the town planning or concept of urbanisation.
