Ancient Patna, known as Pataliputra, was the capital of the Magadha Empire under the Haryanka, Nanda, Mauryan, Shunga, Gupta and Pala empires.
Pataliputra was a seat of learning and fine arts.
Patliputra ( present day Patna) is home to many astronomers and scholars including Aryabhata, Vātsyāyana and Chanakya .
