Gautama Buddha is the historical figure regarded as the founder of Buddhism, born Siddhartha Gautama. He lived in the northeastern Indian subcontinent, with dates traditionally placed in the 5th to 4th centuries BCE, associated with the regions of present-day Nepal and northern India. He is principally associated with a body of teachings on the nature of suffering, its causes, and a prescribed path toward its cessation, which became the doctrinal foundation of the Buddhist tradition.
