Talk:Bindusara

Geographical Locations
The article needs to have names of places such as Baluchistan amended with names, that were used by Historians to describe locations in anciant times. Chirags 22:34, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

-Couldnt Bindusara be considered Eurasian? After all, his mother was apparently the daughter of Selucus, who was Macedonian, and Chandragupta's only recorded wife so I would think so. I might be mistaken though. -User: Afghan Historian

Military Conquests
This is just a general suggestion, but there should be accurate maps that depict the areas of influence and direct control for each monarch like on the Changragupta page —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.211.249.183 (talk) 20:04, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Ranajit Pal
This article's introduction talks about Dr. Ranajit Pal, and includes statements like "Dr. Ranajit Pal stated..". Is this guy a vetted authority on history? I see that he is a proponent of an alternate theory, but is it necessary to give this much credence to his views. The introduction may need re-writing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.96.227.70 (talk) 11:27, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

This guy Ranajit Pal may be a non-entity but it is shocking to find Wikipedia using a large block from his website article on Bindusara (http://www.ranajitpal.com ) and present it without any acknowledgement or reference. This is plain plagiarism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mejda (talk • contribs) 08:55, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Lifespan
He is stated as being born in 320BC and dying in 272BC, and yet it says he was 52 years old at his death. Given these dates he would have been 48 years old when dying (320-272=48), so is it an error by the original editor in calculating the age at death, or are the dates wrong? I don't have personally the expertise (or time) to research this topic, or else I would. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.102.129.191 (talk) 14:54, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
