2.0 Morphological analysis of Ahmedabad’s walled city
2.1 Historical urban phases
PHASE 1: Approximately from 1411 to 1817 (beginning of British colonization). Such a period corresponds to the period of the Gujarat Sultanate, Moghul Dinasty and to the Marathe occupation.
PHASE 2: From 1817 to 1947 Ending of British colonization
PHASE 3: After 1947
