Q. Which among the following dynasties is known to have given the largest grant of villages to the temples and Brahamans?
Answer: Guptas
Notes: The Guptas gave the largest grant of villages to temples and Brahmins. The practice of donating land to Brahmins was common during the Gupta period, which was a time of great cultural and intellectual flourishing in India.  The three types of land grants in the Gupta period were:

• Brahmadeya: Land given to a group of Brahmins.
• Devadana: Land given to the gods.
• Agrahara: A settlement of priests.

The land was typically used for farming or other agricultural purposes. The income generated from the land was used to support the Brahmins and their families. The taxes from the villages were assigned to the Brahmana donees, who were also given the right to get the donated land cultivated.
