Question
What is meant by the term composite culture?
Solution
The interaction of the Turks with the Indians with strong religious beliefs, art, architecture, and literature resulted in a new composite culture known as the Indo-Islamic culture. This culture was neither purely Persian (or Muslim) nor entirely Indian (or Hindu), but a happy fusion of the best elements of the two.
