Nope not Indian.
"King Solomon, built for himself a palace where all the walls were covered in objects of gold, all the household vessels were made of gold. Yet although a palace of great value of wonder it was completely overshadowed by the temple of worship Solomon had constructed after his fathers David's death, using the spoils of war garnered by David. The spoils of one campaign fought by King David were passed to his son for construction of the temple. The amount of gold in his first donation was set at a minimum of 2592tonnes. With a market value today of over thirty-seven billion ( in 1980 ). The main building of the temple was 30.5m long, 10m wide and 15m high. Although the frame was constructed by timber it was completely overlaid with sheets of gold and garnished with precious stones. Today such a building would be valued at 8 million dollars per square meter."
From Gold and Ghosts vol 1 again
At the prices now that is over 100billion in gold alone not including the gems!
You were close duck, your turn.

Good answer RR

But is it right?
This could be a tricky one so the answer is all the signatures were the same not bad from a people who never wrote anything and then knew enough to sign a document
But rr your answer is correct your turn
