Though many dates are assigned for the birth of Sankara, this date may be said to be fairly well established by research scholars on the basis of literary, architectural and astrological sources of information.
History of how Sri Sankara had a long debate with Sri Mandanat Mishra on various topics in the poorva mimamsa and in Advaita Vedanta, and how Sri Mandana Mishra was defeated in arguments and how he was given sanyasai and taken along with Him by the great Acharya, is recorded in most biographies of Sankara.
The presence of a street till recently under the name of Mandana Misra Agraharam, and the presence of a stone icon of Sri Sureswaracharya inside the Sri Kanchi Kamakoti Sankaracharya Math (which is in daily worship) confirm the connection of Sri Sureswaracharya with Kanchi Sankar Math and his videha mukthi at Kanchi.

Furthermore, contextual radiocarbon dating surveys strongly indicates a 1950-1740 BC date for the pottery, a date in accord with both recent Iberian mainland dates and the local archaeological sequence in which it was found.
The report of the presence of Boquique pottery in recent years in a number of new areas throughout northeastern Spain (Maya and Petit 1986) demonstrates that the cultural and perhaps even commercial trading were even wider spread than once believed, as well of having a possible earlier origin in the late Cogotas culture.
Along with other evidence during the earlier Beaker period in the Balearics, circa 2400-2000 BC, as shown by the local presence of elephant ivory objects, along with the significant Beaker pottery and other finds (Waldren 1979 and Waldren 1998), this interaction can be shown to have also been present even earlier.

In the course of so many centuries, grammar and vocabulary were bound to change very considerably, and in point of fact the Egyptian spoken under the Roman occupation bore but little resemblance to that which was current under the oldest Pharaos.

Much later, when the scribes of the Ethiopian and Saite Dynasties (715-525 BC) adopted a deliberately archaistic style of writing, it was to Middle Egyptian that they reverted.
