	Kuru (kingdom) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Kurus in association with the Panchalas are frequently mentioned in the later Vedic literature.
		Kurus are mentioned by Panini (Astadhyayi 4.1.168-75) as one of the fifteen powerful Kshatriya Janapadas of his times, with Hastinapura as its capital.
		The Kurus were followers of Brahmanical way of life, and the early kingdom in all probability is the location of the codification of the Vedas and the establishment of major schools of Vedic priesthood.

		Hindus have several books and several prophets and nothing is considered infallible.
