Indian architecture, belonging to different periods of history, bears the stamp of respective periods. From the advent of Islam in the Indian subcontinent in the 7th and 8th centuries, during these migrations, Muslims acquired several characteristics of indigenous cultures and traditions and incorporated them into their building techniques. The mediaeval period saw significant advancements in the art of architecture, several new architectural characteristics and methods were introduced. This period’s development of architectural style is known as Indo-Islamic Architecture, or Indian architecture inspired by architectural styles of Persia, Arabia and Central Asia. Neither purely Islamic nor strictly Hindu, the Indo-Islamic style was a hybrid of the two. It was, in reality, a fusion of Islamic and Indian architectural components.
