	Gupta Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Gupta dynasty ruled India north of the Vindhya Range during the 4th and 5th centuries.
		The Guptas seem to have relied heavily on infantry archers, and the bow was one of the dominant weapons of their army.
		These Guptas were ultimately ousted by the Vardhana king Harsha, who established an empire in the first half of the seventh century that, for a brief time, rivalled that of the Guptas in extent.

		The Gupta Skandagupta is stated to have repelled a Huna invasion in 455, but they continued to pressure India's northwest frontier (present day Pakistan), and broke through into northern India by the end of the fifth century, hastening the disintegration of the Gupta empire.
		The Alchon ruler Toramana established his rule over Pakistan and northern India, and was succeeded by his son Mihirakula in 520 whose capital was Sakala or modern day Sialkot in the Pakistani Punjab.
		The Guptas continued to resist the Hunas, and allied with the rulers of the neighboring Indian states.

	The Gupta Dynasty
		They believed that his grandfather, Sri Gupta, was the real founder who built the kingdom in 240 A.D. Though the academics may never find substantial enough evidence to solve the mystery, they all unanimously agree that Chandragupta I was the one who really made a name for the Gupta dynasty.
		Chandragupta II ruled India from 375 A.D. to 414 A.D. The mighty Gupta dynasty started to show signs of weakness during the reign of the fourth emperor, Kumaragupta I. Toward the end of his regime (415 A.D. - 455 A.D.), hostile neighbors and the Huns (a nomadic tribe from northern Asia) plagued the empire.
		Though all historians agree that Sri Gupta was the founder of the Gupta dynasty, they could not agree on when he established the kingdom.
