History<\/h3>\n

Brahmi Script inscribed on a Railing Pillar at Velpuru
\nThe original Sanskrit name (ancient Vedic culture) for Guntur was Garthapuri. The ‘Agasthyeswara Sivalayam’ in the old city of Guntur is an ancient temple for Siva.
\nIt has inscriptions on two stones in ‘Naga Lipi’ (ancient script). It is said that Agastya built the temple in the last Treta-Yuga around the Swayambhu Linga and hence the name. The ‘Nagas’ were said to have ruled the region. The place of Sitanagaram and the Guthikonda Caves can be traced (through Vedic Puranas) back to the last Treta-Yuga and Dwapara-Yuga (Traditional Time scale: 1.7 to 0.5 million years ago).
\nGuntur District is home to the second oldest evidence of human habitation in India, in the form of Palaeolithic (old stone age) implements. Ancient history can be traced from the time of Sala kings who ruled during the 5th century BCE. The earliest reference to Guntur, a variant of Guntur, comes from the Idern plates of Ammaraja I (922\u2013929 CE), the Vengi Chalukyan King. Guntur also appears in two inscriptions dated 1147 and 1158 CE.<\/p>\n
