D. use of a new calendar system.

Respuesta :

Correct answer choice is :


B) Development of an early form of chess.

Explanation:

Although the Gupta emperors followed Hindu customs and rituals, it is clear from these developments that the empire was distinguished by spiritual freedom. Evidence of a Buddhist university within the region is additional proof of the nonviolent rapprochement between Hindus and Buddhists.

The Gupta Empire is one of the biggest and most important empires that existed in India from 320 A.D. to 550 A.D. During this period the government highly estimated and promoted arts and knowledge. It is said the Gupta Empire used the first mathematical system that introduced the number zero, to study astronomy and the movement of the Earth. The Gupta Empire also developed chess, but their main cultural advancements are without doubts supported by their mathematical theories and the use of the number zero.
