HistoryIn ancient India it was the capital of the Vatsa Mahajanapada,[1][2][3] one of 16 such regions. The Puranas state that Vatsa was named after a {{IAST|Kaśī}} king.[4] The Ramayana and the Mahabharata attribute the credit of founding its capital {{IAST|Kauśāmbī}} to a Chedi prince {{IAST|Kuśa}} or {{IAST|Kuśāmba}}. The Puranas state that after the washing away of Hastinapura by the Ganges, the {{IAST|Bhāratas}} king {{IAST|Nicakṣu}}, great-great grandson of Janamejaya, abandoned the city and settled in {{IAST|Kauśāmbī}}. This is supported by the {{IAST|Svapnavāsavadattā}} and the {{IAST|Pratijñā-Yaugandharāyaṇa}} attributed to {{IAST|Bhāsa}}. Both of them have described the king Udayana as a scion of the {{IAST|Bhāratas}} family ({{IAST|Bhārata-kula}}). The Puranas provide a list of {{IAST|Nicakṣu}}’s successors which ends with king {{IAST|Kṣemaka}}.[5]Gautama Buddha visited Kaushambi several times during the reign of Udayana on his effort to spread the dharma, the Noble Eightfold Path and the Four Noble Truths. Udayana was a Buddhist upāsaka. The Chinese translation of the Buddhist canonical text {{IAST|Ekottara Āgama}} states that the first image of Buddha, carved out of sandalwood was made under the instruction of Udayana.According to the Puranas, the 4 successors of Udayana were Vahināra, DanḍapāṇI, Niramitra and Kṣemaka. Later, Vatsa was annexed by Avanti. Maniprabha, the great-grandson of Pradyota, ruled at Kauśāmbī as a prince of Avanti.[8]Ashoka gave importance to Kaushambi and placed a pillar of Ashoka in Kaushambi, which has inscriptions there in Pali. A Jaina derasar was also constructed in Kaushambi. Both the pillar and the temple still exist there and the ruins of Vatsa and its university are still being excavated by archaeologists. Kaushambi is also the birthplace of sixth Jain Tirthankar Padam Prabhu Ji. The present Kaushambi district was carved out of Prayagraj district on 4 April 1997.
