3. Age Gupta (320-550).
A. The Rise and Fall:
Dai Nghia Tinh to India around the year 672, after HT Xuanzang more than 40 years, and had heard of the title king 'Maharaja Sri-Gupta' kingdom of Magadha built a reinforced near Mrigasikhavana about '500 years ago' for the pilgrim monk from China staying. Scholars of the following is not reconciliation with Indian history, and they think only conjecture Tsing sensorial religion only. But today it has been proved that Gupta era based on the Bhagwatam. Field Gupta start from Bengal origin, according to the notes in the tower "Varendra Mrigashihavan Stupa" on hills in Nepal, then became emir of origin Prayaga, Eastern Uttar Pradesh, is now in 240 TL Allahabad. 
This was the first emirate Sri-Gupta between TL 240-280. See inscriptions bronze in Poona (near Bombay now) by Princess Prabhavati Gupta (daughter of Chandragupta II later) recorded that Sri-Gupta is Adhiraja of Gupta. King's successor Ghatotkacha (280-319) but also have access inscriptions mark the Great King (Maharaja). By the Third Dynasty, circa 320 King Chandra Gupta I (320-335) based on marriage to Princess Kumaradevi Licchavi line Magadha (Ma-Jay-Da) gave the territory to expand; called the Great (maharajadhiraja). Since then the new Gupta dynasty become glorious, and the historical record of the era Gupta India only from here. 
Kumardevi and Chandragupta I on gold coins by King's son Samudragupta for casting. The downside is the Goddess Ambika (Durga).
When King Samudra Gupta (335-375), the successor to the 360 ​​years the capital was moved to the US market (Pataliputra), ie Patna now. Using his data were inscriptions in Allahabad by Harisena record and in the General Register of Xuanzang. Under the reign of this territory even be extended from the Ganges basin to the west, central and eastern India and the island after acquiring more than 20 other small states. Many neighboring emirate to the tribute to be protected, as far as Sri Lanka (Sinhala or Sri Lanka). After totalitarian king Samudragupta do Yagna rituals Ashwamedha horses, a rare practice, and for gold coinage circulating in that engraving tools and instruments of war ever used in the court. The gold coinage, Samudra Gupta dynasty were modeled on the style of the Kushan empire before. Kushan era were cast benchmark 8 gram gold coins called dinara, derived from the Roman Denarius coins Aurius. 
King Samudragupta are broken lyre. The downside: Goddess Shri-Laxmi Prosperity.
Under his reign, Brahmin teachers (BLM) prevailed because he worship of Vishnu (Vaishnava). So relics PG, except Nalanda and Sanchi, according to Fa Hien University, the Bodh Gaya (Bodhgaya), Kapilavastu (Kapilavastu) and sentence-enforcement-na (passed away) was completely wasted. In the mid-fourth century, many monks from afar to worship Bodh Gaya no shelter; king of Ceylon is Sri-Meghavarman angel gave these items to the king Samudra Gupta dedicate so pleased to build a temple in Bodhi Gaya ('Bodh Gaya-") and was approved.
King Rama Gupta (375-380) in such position long. Communications User 'Devichandraguptam' tells of the expedition over the land of Malwa king was defeated and King Saka Satrap (descendants of Scythian people) captured. To be released on the King agreed to bring the queen awarded for Saka Dhruvadevi Satrap. This makes people angry brother please masquerade queen to come to the barracks to get instant kill enemy Saka Satrap, merger Malwa and retain Gupta's reputation. Therefore he was named Emperor Shakari or Sahasanka (killer was Shakas). Of course the people supported and appreciated queen king Rama Gupta should be abandoned, ceded the throne to me.
Based on the gravestone in Mathura and Bilsad, people pretty much know details about King Chandra Gupta II (380-414) . After ascending the throne, he killed the emir Gujarat, Saurashtra and Bengal to open up more territory. He was allied with Naga land through marriage to Princess Kubernaga; and with land lines Vakataka (plain Deccan) by he daughter is Prabhavati Gupta II in 390. King Rudrasena The Princess Prabhavati Gupta gave bronze inscriptions recorded in Poona aforementioned family genealogy himself. Military victory was his greatest was captured Saurashtra origin (now Maharashtra) alongside the Arabian Sea, expanding maritime trade through western India. 
He was honored as the Solar Hero (Vikramaditya: Sun of Valour), because he was the king of the times that most Gupta, but he also praised the achievements of literary, scholarly, rather than military , by his reign, all branches of academic literature, especially directed both Veda and Dharma study, medicine, animal-medicine, mathematics and astronomy of India has a bright leap history books about later praised the renaissance of Indian literature. His timetable is also more brilliant by the aid group's reputation writer 9 (Navaratna); among them the immortal Kalidasa of Indian literature. Besides King Vikramaditya effect, his reign is also known more Narendrachandra, Simhachandra, Narendra Simha, Vikrama devarajas, Devagupta and Devasri. 
This reign of Grand Master France Show (Fa-Hsien) from China have come to worship the Buddha had visited the area and throughout the empire Gupta Chandra Gupta II reigns under 401 (record 399 books) to 410, and recorded many of the memoir 'National Signing Buddha'.

He was brilliant wine list is king to build Institute world famous Buddhist Nalanda's a great surface. He has two sons Skandagupta (children with queen Devaki) and Purugupta (children with queen Ananthadevi). At the end of his reign have Pushyamitra military mutiny threatened Narmada valley in court. 
Kumara Gupta dynasty gold coins I (414-455) with the tiger king is lowered. The flip side Nimbate goddess figure, symbolizing the Ganges.
By the time the king Skanda Gupta (455-467) , according to the inscriptions Bilsad and Bhitari, is considered the last king of the Gupta era splendor, as though he was military defeat Pushyamitra, but barbarians Hung (Hephthalites - which uses Indian call is Huna) from northwestern constantly threatened to spill down into the US market. According to inscriptions Kahaum he had killed hundreds emir (?) Including Hungarian barbarians defeated by him in the valley Aryavarta year 467. He also very tolerant of many religions.

[Heras, A Note on the Excavations at Nalanda and its History, JBBRAS , II, NS, p. 215-216.] But then Narasimha Gupta troops counterattack and beat and kicked Mihirakula Huns to take the Shakala (Sialkot, Kashmir today).
The invasion of the barbarians were quickly put Gupta came to collapse because entailed a massive infiltration of tribes people from Central Asian frontier, plus Indian economy severely degraded due to loss of rights control the Silk Road, the trade route lifeline. What's remarkable here is the descendant of Hungarian citizens escaped slave capital of Kashmir chronic gradually adapt to society and new culture to later metamorphosed into the same Rajputs.
King's successor as Kumara Gupta-II (476-477) does not save what is achievement. Reign of three tidal later too short a total of only about 10 years should use rare materials. And from there the lineage of the throne will not be recorded clearly. Magadha on the wane and internal disturbances occur on forever. According to the inscription, the king of kings Apshad at Kumara Gupta Adityasena II, then king Damodara Gupta defeat rebels Isanavarman - a brave general public used to have military expel Andhra, Sulika, GAUDA and barbarians Hung, was honored on Haraha inscriptions.

Then later on the king Narasimha Gupta has ceded the throne to children that do monks in Nalanda. BLM and PG teaching seems to have under this mix.
