Kannauj is an ancient city, in earlier times the capital of the Empire of Harsha under Emperor Harsha.[2] It is said that Kanyakubja Brahmin's of which Shandilya's (Rishi Bharadwaj was one of the disciple of Rishi Sandilya) held to have constituted one of the three prominent families of Kanyakubja Brahmins originally from Kannauj.[3]
