India history and geography
Source: archive.org: Nepali Its Language And Literature by DharmadityaKhopadeśa (खोपदेश) or Bhaktapura is the only town where Shaivite manuscripts have been recovered in abundance, while the two main towns of Kāntipura (Kathmandu) and Aśoka-pattana abound in Nepali works on Buddhism.—Most of the manuscripts are written on palmyra leaves and on yellow-painted Nepali plant paper. To make them worm-proof, they use orpiment with flour paste which is applied on the paper and dried up and levelled with a heavy weight.

It is said that Raja Ananda Malla founded the town in the shape of Shiva’s drum Damaru.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
