The Panchala kingdom was an important mahājanapada of ancient northern India, located in the Ganges-Yamuna doab, roughly in modern western Uttar Pradesh. It is well known from Vedic and epic traditions, especially the Mahābhārata, where the Panchalas were closely linked to the Pandavas through marriage alliances. In historical times, Panchala was a center of Vedic learning and later of Buddhist activity, with cities like Ahichhatra and Kampilya serving as capitals. By the early centuries CE, it was absorbed into larger regional powers, but it remained influential in shaping the political and cultural landscape of early India.
