Redirect from Gauda
[edit]As I don't know how to do it, I am putting a request out, for someone who does to redirect Gauda to this page. Thanks.
Confusion: Gauda Region Vs. City
[edit]Article contains confused details on the history. Gauda was an ancient region spanning West Bengal, Pundravardhan and Bengal proper. Gauda, the city, is not from that era. It was built in the 12th century, probably during the Pala Kings.
