Allahabad [SEP] Introduction
Kosambi was one of the greatest cities in India from the late Vedic period until the end of Maurya Empire with occupation continuing until the Gupta Empire. Since then, the city has been a political, cultural and administrative centre of the Doab region. In the early 17th century, Allahabad was a provincial capital in the Mughal Empire under the reign of Jahangir. "Akbarnama" mentions that the Mughal emperor Akbar founded a great city in Allahabad. 'Abd al-Qadir Bada'uni and Nizamuddin Ahmad mention that Akbar laid the foundations of an imperial city there which was called "Ilahabas" or "Ilahabad". He was said to be impressed by its strategic location and built a fort there, later renaming it "Ilahabas" by 1584 which was changed to Allahabad by Shah Jahan.
