Abstract :

Ancient India had the tradition of ‘Gurukulas‘. Under this system students have to live at the ‘Ashram‘ (abode) of the teacher and get the education. This form of the education is known as ‘Guru–Shishya Pramapara‘. This was developed in the Agraharas. At that time, education was treated as a matter of personal concern and it was not at all emphasized on mass production like modern education industry. Ancient Education System in India is also to be understood as being ultimately the outcome of the Indian theory of knowledge as part of the corresponding scheme of life and values.From the ancient times Dharwad district played a very important role in imparting different anches of knowledge. There were many educational institutions enjoyed royal patronage. In this paper an attempt has made to trace out the history of Agraharas in Dharwad district.
