  1. The Rashtrakutas was a dynasty that ruled in the Deccan Region.

    The Rigveda is considered the oldest book in the world.

    Valmiki wrote the Ramayana.

    I think Taxila was the capital of Gandhar.

    Samudragupta is considered the Indian Napoleon.

    13th century B.C. (vague)

    The Huns attacked India during the period of the Kushans.


  2. 1.The term Rastrakutas means designated officers in charge of territorial division. Dantidurga was the founder of the Rashtrakuta dynasty. He was succeeded by Krishna I. He was not only a great conqueror, but also a great builder. He had built many temples. Govinda III was the most renowned ruler among the Rashtrakutas.

    he Rashtrakutas made a splendid contribution to art and architecture. The rock cut shrines at Ellora and Elephanta are unique in their own way. The sculptured panels of Dasavatara, Bhairava, Ravana shaking the mount Kailash, dancing Siva, Vishnu and Lakshmi listening to music are superb. The Siva temple at Ellora was built by Krishna I. This temple is made up of solid rocks. It is considered to be an architectural marvel..

    2. The oldest printed book in the world is believed to be "The Diamond Sutra", which bears the date 868 AD, andwas found in a walled-up cave in Dunhuang, north-west China, in 1907, along with other printed items.

    It consists of a scroll of grey paper printed with Chinese characters, wrapped around a wooden pole.

    The scroll forms part of the Library's Silk Road display, which focuses on the art and culture of the region.

    It was discovered by the Hungarian born explorer Sir Marc Aurel Stein, and is thought to be part of a library which was walled up in the cave around the year 1000AD.

    There are claims that the I Ching is the oldest book in the world, however, it can safely be assigned to the 13th century, BCE - thus about the same age as the Mosaic attribution for the Pentateuch.

    The Papyrus Ebers is the oldest medical text in the world, dated to the middle 16th century BCE

    The Epic of Gilgamesh is dated to the Third Dynasty of Ur or between 2100 and 2000 BCE

    The Precepts of Ptah-hotep has been dated to the Sixth Dynasty of Egypt or between 2300 BCE and 2150 BCE.

    3. Ramayana

    Valmiki Ramayana-  Adhyatma Ramayana

    Tulasi Ramayana-  Yogavasistha

    Ramayana - story of prince Ram ("Ram - Ayana" - literally narration of story of prince Ram) was written by Rishi Valmiki (Rishi is not part of the name - just a title for a learned researcher in ancient India) - so if you just ask for the name,

    it was Valmiki.

    YEA IT WAS VALMIKI FOR SURE!!!

    4. Gandhar or Gandhara (Urdu: گندھار) is a gotra or tribe of Jats found in the states of Haryana and Punjab in India as well as the province of Punjab in Pakistan. During the Mahabharata period, the present-day Kandahar province of Afghanistan used to be known as Gandhar. Some Brahmins also use the surname.

    5. Samudragupta was popularly known as the "Indian Napoleon" as he conquered many territories without making much of an effort.
