thanks to the dip$#!t commie govt that the bangladesh refugee problem (and b4 that the pom stronghold in bengal + division of bengal) spawned, no one seems to have a clue about the history of bengal.
i have travelled all over india, and thought that bengal started existing since calcutta... only to learn that plutarch wasnt unaware of the region and that it hasnt gone un-noticed in the mahabharat either (ved vyas being born in orissa could have something to do with it)
anyway here's a site that gave me something to smile about.
