Vedic learning in Mithila

Vedic learning started in Mithila with the expansion of Vedic and Brahmanic culture eastwards along the Ganges plain.[1] Some sources consider this centre of Brahminical study to form an Ancient Mithila University.[2] From the 12th/13th to 15th century CE it was an important centre of Nyaya Shastra and logical sciences.[1][3]
