MITHILA

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 620 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MIC-MOL
MITHILA , an
ancient
  kingdom of
India
 , corresponding to that portion of
Behar
  lying N. of the
Ganges
 , with an extension into Nepal, where was the
capital
  of Janakpur. Its early
history
  is obscure, but it has always been noted for its
peculiar
  conservatism and the learning of its Brahmans. They form to this day one of the five classes of northern Brahmans, and their head is the Maharaja of
Darbhanga
 . The language, known as Maithili, is a dialect of Bihari, with an archaic
system
  of
grammar
  and a literature of its own.
