Vikramaśilā, we know from Taranath and other sources, grew up in the 8th century A. D., and rivalled with Nālandā. From this, we may gather that, like Nālandā, it must have been also a great University; and that it had also a large number of students. - [Previous: c13.166](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sankalia-1934.c13.166) - [Next: c13.168](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sankalia-1934.c13.168) - [Up: c13](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sankalia-1934.c13) ## Linked texts (1) - [Nālandā](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.nalanda) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sankalia-1934.c13.167](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sankalia-1934.c13.167) · Pramāṇa
