		Siddhartha Gautama, the future Buddha, was born at Lumbini near the Shakyan capital of Kapilavastu in the southern region of Nepal known as the terai.
		The 5th-century Chinese pilgrim Fa-hsien described Kapilavastu as a "great scene of empty desolation", populated by a few monks, a score or two of families and dangerous animals such as lions and white elephants.
		Fa-hsien none the less visited well-known sites, including the Shakyan palace, the place where the child bodhisattva's identifying marks were discovered, and, east of the city, the garden of Lumbini where the future Buddha's mother bathed and gave birth.

	Buddha Birthplace: British Archeologists Say Buddha was, indeed, born in Tilaurakot in of Nepal [ Newslook Magazine® ] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		He was called Siddhartha -- "he who has attained his goals" -- and lived in the city of Kapilavastu until he was 29, when he left home to seek his destiny as the Buddha -- "the Enlightened One" -- founder of one of the world's great religions.
		The search for Kapilavastu began in the late 1800s after archaeologists unearthed a stone pillar erected in Lumbini in 249 B.C. by the Indian Emperor Ashoka to commemorate the Buddha's birthplace.
		And although the monks' stories differed, the scholars nevertheless concluded that Tilaurakot was Kapilavastu, in part because it was an urban site in a rural area.

	Comic World News \| Reviews
		Kapilavastu is set at the time of Siddhartha’s birth, but it’s only marginally about that.
		I learned where Siddhartha was born (the titular Kapilavastu) and — if the account was accurately portrayed — the legend surrounding his conception and birth.
		In a book in which characters compare their cities to modern Paris and New York and where Tatta refers to animals as “my peeps,” accuracy is going to be a secondary concern at most.
