Aryabhata-1 and his astronomy English - 1st ed - Tirupati Rashtriya sanskrit vidyapeetha 2003 - 76

Aryabhata was a fifth-century astronomer and mathematician who, in 499 CE, wrote what was to become a singularly famous astronomical treatise, revolutionizing the way people thought of the universe. Its name was the Aryabhatiya. He mentions in the Aryabhatiya that it was composed 3,600 years into the Kali Yuga, when he was 23 years old. This corresponds to 499 CE, and implies that he was born in 476.
