A Glimpse into Nepal\u2019s Ancient Roots<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Nepal’s history traces back millions of years. Fossils of Ramapithecus<\/em>, found in Butwal, suggest that human habitation in Nepal began over a million years ago. The first recorded mention of Nepal appears in the Atharvaparishishta<\/em>, dating back to around 500\u2013600 BCE. References to Nepal can also be found in Buddhist scriptures, Mahabharata<\/em>, Jain texts<\/em>, and Kautilya\u2019s Arthashastra<\/em>. The historical records of the Gupta Empire, and later inscriptions, validate Nepal\u2019s status as an independent and sovereign nation since ancient times. In different eras, Nepal was referred to as Satyavati<\/em> in the Satya Yuga, Tapovan<\/em> in the Treta Yuga, and Muktisopan<\/em> in the Dwapar Yuga.<\/p>\n
