Here's a brief history of Bangalore (Bengaluru), the capital city of Karnataka, India: --- Ancient and Medieval Period Prehistoric Origins: Archeological findings suggest human settlements in the Bangalore region dating back to the Stone Age. 9th–10th Century CE: Inscriptions found in and around Bangalore show it was part of the Ganga Dynasty, followed by the Cholas and later the Hoysalas. 1537 CE: The modern history of Bangalore begins when Kempe Gowda I, a feudatory ruler under the Vijayanagara Empire, founded the city. He built a mud fort and established markets and residential areas. --- Mughal and Maratha Influence 17th Century: The city came under the control of the Bijapur Sultanate and then the Mughals, who sold it to Chikkadevaraya Wodeyar, the ruler of Mysore. 18th Century: Hyder Ali and later his son Tipu Sultan ruled Bangalore as part of the Kingdom of Mysore. Tipu Sultan developed the city further and built a summer palace there. --- British Period 1799: After Tipu Sultan’s defeat in the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War, Bangalore was handed over to the British, who established a cantonment (military base). Bangalore was split into two parts: Bangalore City (Pete) – ruled by the Maharaja of Mysore. Bangalore Cantonment – administered by the British. This led to a dual-city structure with distinct cultures, languages, and architecture. --- Post-Independence Period 1947: After India gained independence, Bangalore became part of the Mysore State (later renamed Karnataka). 1980s–1990s: Bangalore emerged as a center for public sector industries and later the IT revolution, earning it the nickname "Silicon Valley of India." The city also developed into a hub for aerospace, biotechnology, education, and startup culture. --- Modern Bangalore (Bengaluru) In 2006, the city's official name was changed from Bangalore to Bengaluru to reflect its local Kannada pronunciation. Today, Bengaluru is one of India's most dynamic cities, known for its technology industry, cosmopolitan culture, pleasant climate, and diverse population. --- Would you like a timeline or a deeper look into any specific period or theme (e.g., Kempe Gowda’s contributions, British cantonment, or IT growth)?
