Taxila University

Taxila University
 
▪️Taxila university is the oldest university and was probably the first organised educational centre of ancient India. 
▪️It is not clear who actually founded this university, although it was funded by almost all the great kings and rulers of the ancient past. 
▪️It was a centre of learning for logic, religion, medicine, mathematics, astrology, the Vedas, warfare and primitive science. Taxila, which was earlier the capital of the Gandhara Kingdom, allowed students from all parts of India to be enrolled and education was free for all. 
▪️Only Chandalas were not allowed to study in this university. 
▪️Scholars like Nagarjuna. Panini, Chanakya, Prasanajit, Jeevka (son of Bimbisara) all came to this place to study before they became important personalities in Indian history. 
▪️Even foreign rulers accepted its importance and many of them took scholars from this university to their nations. 
▪️Alexander took some scholars from Taxila to Greece. 
▪️In 500 BC, the Hun ruler, Toramana, attacked and demolished the university campus. During that time, most of the records were burnt or destroyed..
