101. Storia Delle Donne-Marija Gimbutas http://www.tmcrew.org/femm/storiadelledonne/vitaopera.htm

HOME Marija Gimbutas vita e opera Marija Gimbutas nacque a Vilnius, in Lituania, nel 1921. Nel 1949, scappando dal regime sovietico, si rifugiò negli Stati Uniti dopo aver conseguito nel 1946 il dottorato in Filosofia dell’Archeologia presso l’Università di Tubingen in Germania. La sua preparazione era interdisciplinare, comprendeva le basi di studi linguistici, etnologia e storia delle religioni, cosa poco comune tra gli archeologi.Per la sua vasta conoscenza delle lingue europee, Marija fu scelta dalla Harvard University per fare ricerca e per scrivere testi sull’Europa preistorica (molti dei documenti sul Est europeo erano indecifrabili dai suoi colleghi più anziani). Rimase a Harvard per tredici anni dove divenne anche oratrice alla facoltà di Antropologia. Nel 1955, Marija Gimbutas fu fatta membro del Havard’s Peabody Museum. Nel 1956, Marija presentò la sua "ipotesi dei Kurgan" in una conferenza internazionale a Filadelfia. Con questa teoria, fu la prima studiosa a mettere insieme la conoscenza linguistica e archeologica al fine di risolvere il problema delle origini del linguaggio dei popoli proto-indoeuropei (a cui ha dato il nome di "Kurgans" dopo la scoperta dei loro particolari tumuli sepolcrali) e ad aver tracciato le loro migrazioni in Europa. Questa ipotesi e l’atto di collegare le discipline, ha avuto un impatto significativo sulla ricerca riguardante la cultura Indoeuropea.

104. The Six Buddhist Universities Of Ancient India It has been called the treasure house of accurate information byEuropean Archeologists. They found the information given there http://www.saigon.com/~anson/ebud/ebdha240.htm

BuddhaSasana Home Page English Section The six Buddhist universities of ancient India D. Amarasiri Weeraratne I t At the end of this period the Muslims had conquered parts of the Roman empire and established their rule in Spain, Portugal and parts of France. They introduced the learning of the Greeks and Romans as well as knowledge gathered from their contacts with India. This set the pace for Martin Luther’s reformation which broke the power of the Catholic Church. The ensuing liberal policies persuaded by the Protestants brought about the Renaissance, after this the Europeans pushed back the power of the Churches and began to make progress in civilisation. In contrast to this with the rise of Buddhism in India, there arose many centres of learning which did not exist before. Buddhist monks could opt for a life of meditation in the forests, or a life of teaching, preaching, propagating the Dharma as a result of the activities of the teaching monks, seats of learning arose. These seats of monastic learning (Pirivenas) gradually developed and some of them became full-fledged universities. As a result Buddhist India came to have five major universities which achieved wide fame. These five were 1. Nalanda, 2. Vickramasila, 3. Odantapuri, 4. Jagadalala and 5. Somapura. Nalanda University Nalanda is the best known of ancient India’s universities. It’s site has been discovered and it’s ruins have been preserved by India’s Department of Archeology. It is situated in Bihar State, the ancient Magadha country. Magadha is well known as the cradle of Buddhism. Bihar is so called because it had a large number of Viharas or Buddhist monasteries. Nalanda was a prosperous city during the days of the Buddha. He visited it during his preaching itineraries. When in Nalanda, the Buddha sojourned at Ambavana the mango-park with his disciples. Nalanda was also the home town of Ven. Sariputra, King Asoka had erected a Stupa at the spot where he was cremated.
