Aydodhya was later really built as capital of the historical Gupta dynasty's vast, rich, well-organized northern empire, recorded by Chinese visiting monk Fa Hsien. They excelled in metallurgy, astronomy and hedonism. The later southern counterpart was the Chola empire (c900-1300), capital Tanjore. Their Tamil culture, excelling in architecture, dance and bronze, lives on.
