c17.106

The wall referred to by Hiuen Tsiang remains uptil now a puzzle. We tried hard to find out its traces, but could not get any remains of it. The only way to explain its non-recovery appears to be this: that, in the time of the Pālas, the University outgrew itself and in order to make room for newer buildings the physical boundaries were broken down.
